Description
A very attractive variety with beautiful prolific pink blossoms in Springtime; foliage has a slight purple vein; and the fruit in autumn is deep crimson with crimson coloured flesh. Excellent for jams and jellies, but also large enough for tarts. A variety found growing at Belvedere House, Mullingar, Co. Westmeath. Its true identity is yet to be established. But it has attracted much attention from visitors to our research orchard, both at flowering time and again when in fruit.
