Narrative
Per "The American Fruit Culturist" (see citation): "Rather large, approaching medium; round, obscurely heart-shaped; dark red, becoming nearly black; flesh dark-purplish crimson, of a rich acid, mixed with a slight astringency. Season very late, to after mid-summer. In England its ripening is retarded till autumn by the shading of a wall. The common Morello is a smaller sub-variety, a litle darker and with smaller branches." Per "Manual of Fruits," p. 22: "Large, obtuse heart-shaped, roundish, dark red; flesh purplish red, tender, juicy, and pleasantly sub-acid; used for culinary purposes."
