Grower: Kelly

Year: 2017

Accession: 312

Seed Source: Plant Gene Resources Canada (CN 17845)

Comments:

2017 Lots of flavour! Sweet/tart taste and very meaty, almost with no seeds. Would make a great variety for sauces and preservation. My plant actually got trampled by my dog, but bounced back a little. Due to this I'm not sure how much stronger the plant would actually have been, and how more productive harvest would have been. Will regrow in a future year to make more sound observations.

History

  • This variety shares it's name with an area of Russia, although it's unknown if it's from that location, or just named after it.
  • Donated to Plant Gene Resources Canada in 1987 by Jack Metcalf of the Smithfield Experimental Farm (Quinte West, ON, Canada) - now closed.
