Fruit harvest

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

Large elongated dark blue fruit with firm sweet greenish-yellow flesh; freestone – ideal for drying.

Medium vigour, early and regular bearing, widely planted.

High, reliable yields; grown commercially worldwide.

Self-fertile and a good pollinator; unfortunately sharka-susceptible.
