indet., vigorous sprawling plant with no main stem and branches growing in different directions, it is better caged than staked. Regular wispy foliage. One of the first to set fruit in my 2009 garden. Medium to large heart shaped red fruits that are very meaty with very few seeds, 8-14 oz. Very good to excellent sweet flavor.
