Very productive offruit, being short-jointed and clusters of fruit form at each joint. Fruits areof right size and shape to pack well for shipment. Color of skin purplish red,about the same shade as our Redfield Beauty. Our experience with this va-riety, both in our own crop and by observation of market crops in severalsections is that about one-half of the fruits come the true globe shape, thebalance are rather flattened but much thicker proportionately than otherstandard varieties.
