- F1 generation: indet., regular leaf, high yield of medium oblate red fruits of variable shapes, yellow with green stripes when immature and ripening to red through a bi-colored stage when flesh is green with dark purple blush. Outstanding sweet flavor, very small seed cavities, firm and meaty flesh. I will continue growing and selecting for the best flavor.
