'Russian Saskatchewan' immature fruit, Aug 2019 ©Kelly

Grower: Kelly

Year: 2019, 2020

Accession: 292

Seed Source: Original seed purchased from commercial vendor.

Comments:

2020
2019 Did very well for me until the rains and cool weather started. This variety definitely seemed to like the full sun/high heat it was getting up until the end of July. When the heavy rain started then it began to abort fruit constantly. Nice flavour though, and definitely early. Will regrow again.
