Characterization: Size medium of below, mostly smooth,
slightly ribbed; some fruits compressed. Ground
color pale yellow, slightly striped with bright red.
Dots numerous, submerged and almost imperceptible -
a few scattered, brownish. Cavity medium; stem
very short, about ¼"; basin medium; sepals small,
converging, eye small. Flesh tinged yellow,
fine grain, tender, lacking in juice. mild
subacid, rather flat, not much to it - but overripe.
Apparently has a short season of durability unless
overripe when picked. Small size, lacking
in desirable qualities etc., seem to be without merit.
