A very distinct thickly spined sort obtained by crossing the Japanese Climbing on the Peerless White Spine. It gets its wonderful prolificacy and vigor from the first named parent and its beauty and uniformity from the latter. It was originated by Mr. C. P. Coy, the veteran seed grower. Mr. Coy says : " The variety is of the hardy, white spine type, is a rapid, strong and vigorous grower and very prolific in fruit. The pickles differ from all other hardy sorts in being thickly set with fine spines over the entire surface, except the extreme end; and during the whole period of growth, from the time they first set until fully grown, the form is exceptionally straight and symmetrical, thus being as choice for a slicing variety as it is for pickles.
