Dessert
A handsome, medium-sized dessert apple with bright crimson skin on the sun-exposed side and paler yellow-tinged coloring on the shaded side. The flesh is tender, juicy, sugary, and vinous, making it a first-rate quality fruit in use from October to January. The tree is vigorous, grows to medium size, and bears well, performing excellently on paradise rootstock for dwarf and espalier cultivation.
