Details
Originating as an heirloom from the Netherlands, the medium to large fruits, weighing up to 18 oz., are ribbed and somewhat irregular in shape. These oblate, red fruits are meaty and offer an excellent bold, slightly sweet flavor. They are produced consistently on indeterminate, regular leaf vines starting from 75 days, ensuring a steady harvest throughout the growing season.
