Grower: Kelly
Year: 2018
Accession: 310
Seed Source: Received from Plant Gene Resources Canada (CN 17687)
Comments:
2018 Very tart flavour, seems to struggle with high heat, but once the corn grew around it the sun scald was less of a problem. Will drop flowers in high heat. Interesting variety with quite variable fruit shape and size. Heavily ruffled, so no cracking or splitting. With cooler temps I probably would have gotten quite a bit bigger of a harvest, so may be good for cooler climates. 4 lbs/plant.
