B.C KO T

indet., regular leaf foliage, round small to medium size black/brown fruits with nice subtle green stripes on the shoulders that disappear when fully ripe, ~4-5 oz. It inherited Green Zebra's shape and size and has some faint red and green stripes. The taste is very similar to Green Zebra, as I remember it from the previous years, it is mild and slightly acidic. I am sure the future segregations will show some interesting fruits, and I will continue the F2 growouts in 2010 or 2011.
