Storage

Given in thirds of a month (early / mid / late) for the northern hemisphere in a temperate climate; altitude and season shift them.

Description

Fruit

Strongly coloured fruit with flesh that is also reddish. Only weakly aromatic, of medium eating quality.

Growth

Tree of medium vigour.

Yield

Tendency to drop fruit around harvest time.

Notes

Suitable for meadow orchards. Needs a sufficiently moist but, because of canker susceptibility, not too heavy or waterlogged soil.

Care

Because of the drop tendency, pick over the tree several times, taking the largest fruit each time.
