Knight (Dr. Quaintness). Leaf blades medium, spines 
long and evenly spaced. Leaves very dark green. 
Fruit medium size deep red. Berries produced in 
large clusters as the tree grows older, many clusters 
as large as a child’s fist. Very persistent often drop 
as next year’s crop forms, which might mean that 
they are bird proof. The tree grows tall, straight and 
conical. The original can be seen in the garden of 
Ten Oaks, where it has been for approx. fifteen

bears fruit early in life. A very good commercial 
variety. Female.
