Characterization: 1926 notes. Good size, well above
medium; roundish conic to a little elongated,
but mostly roundish; smooth, regular, uniform.
Ground color rather pale yellow, pretty well overspread
with a dull red wash with indistinct
stripes on better colored fruits, quite distinct in
case of less well colored specimens. Dots numerous,
submerged or very slightly raised, yellowish, not very
conspicuous. Cavity deep, fairly broad but acute
because of depth; basin medium depth and width,
slightly furrowed. Flesh yellowish, fine grain,
rather firm, juice a little lacking; sweet rather
lacking in richness, a little flat yet fairly pleasant
as a sweet apple.
