Narrative
Fruit medium in size, roundish in form. Skin yellow in color, considerable blemish. Flesh white, not juicy, potato-like in texture. Undergoes practically no softening during ripening. Disagreeable flavor. Of no consequence as a fruit. Tree extremely vigorous and stately, has lusty, dark green foliage, not fully evaluated as to blight resistance. -- H. Hartman 1957
