Description
Fruit
Small, aromatic fruit, storable until February/March; flavour grade 2-.
Growth
Weak-growing, small, broadly rounded crown with plenty of short fruiting wood.
Yield
Cropping starts early, regular and high; but can quickly exhaust the tree if water and nutrients are lacking.
Notes
For the garden; otherwise healthy, somewhat prone to canker on heavy soils.
Care
Given the high, early yields, supply water and nutrients consistently and rejuvenate the short fruiting wood.
