- indet., regular leaf plant with high yield of dark pink medium size globes, oblate, very meaty, with dark green shoulders that turn pink when fully ripe. Some concentric cracking occur in heavy rains, otherwise it is generally blemish-free. The flavor is very good to excellent, balanced sweet and acidic. This is one of our family favorites.
