Description
Fruit
Very hard fruit, juicy at tree ripeness but becoming mealy quickly later; plain taste (rated 3+).
Growth
Strong-growing tree.
Yield
Tends to fruit drop at ripeness.
Notes
Westphalian regional variety for meadow orchards; barely disease-susceptible, but keeps only about 1 month.
Care
Harvest in good time, as the fruit drops easily at ripeness and quickly turns mealy.
