Fruit harvest

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

Very large, uniform berries on exceptionally long trusses, mildly tart.

Vigorous, upright bush; late flowering usually escapes late frosts.

Exceptionally high, regular yields; the leading commercial variety for the late harvest.
