Indet., regular leaf plants. 4-6 oz orange round oblate fruits. Excellent flavor, juicy. My plants struggled all season because of the location, and did not produce well. Need to re-trial.

History

• Original Russian name is likely misspelled ('Kazahk Schalavije'). 'Kazahk' should be spelled as 'Kazakh', but I am not sure about the spelling of 'Schalavije' - it does not sound or look like any Russian word I know of.
• The name implies it may have originated in Kazahkstan (a republic in the former USSR, now an independent country).
• Variety brought to SSE from CV Anioleka Seeds of Scotland.
• No commercial sources in North America are known at this time (fall 2007).
