growers for its quality as a shipper. Color blood red;

fully as productive. Its color is that dark crimson so 
much admired and unexcelled for its fine flavor.

ity, large size and productiveness, and one that meets

fruit is firm and solid and of excellent flavor.

larly strong grower, producing large, strong blossoms,

late sorts for pollenizing. Fruit is a rich crimson, rarely
