B.C KO T
- indet., regular leaf, high yield of pink small plum-shaped fruit about 1-2 oz, 2.5-3" long and 1.5-2" in diameter, which does not match the description of this variety, as it is supposed to be red. Very thick meaty walls with little juice, good flavor. High yields.
- I will regrow it again from the same seed to see if I get anything different. See picture in Discussion tab.
