Description
Fruit
Medium, round fruit with bright red blush over a yellow ground; golden, firm, juicy flesh that separates cleanly from the stone.
Growth
Vigorous, well-branched tree, heavy-flowering with good bud hardiness.
Yield
Reliably high yields; the key parent of many modern Haven-type cultivars.
Notes
Self-fertile; the benchmark against which other peaches' ripening is timed.
