An old favorite among the 
shipping sorts, it grows to 
large size. The rind is tough, 
thin, and it has good keeping 
qualities. The color is dark 
green, ripening to a lighter 
shade with much veining. The 
flesh is of high quality, deep 
red in color, and the seeds 
are brown with some mot¬ 
tling.
