Description
Fruit
Medium-sized, dark red, heart-shaped fruit with firm, sweet flesh.
Growth
Vigorous, spreading habit; very early-bearing and highly productive.
Yield
Very high, tends to overset; thin to maintain fruit size.
Notes
Self-sterile, but an excellent pollinizer and breeding parent (Lapins, Sweetheart, Sunburst).
