Narrative

Orig. in Corvallis, Ore., by George F. Waldo, U.S. Dept. of Agriculture and Oregon Agr. Expt. Sta. Introd. in 1961. U.S. Ore. 616 x U.S.-Ore. 73; cross made in 1946; selected in 1949; tested as U.S.-Ore. 966. Fruit: large; firm; flavor excellent; ripens very early, with a season averaging from 21 June to 15 July; desirable market variety, processes very well; resembles Marion. Bush: canes medium vigorous, very pliable, making training easy; majority of fruit borne on basal 4-5 ft of canes, thus close planting is necessary to secure high yields since individual plant yields average about 50% of those for Boysen or Marion; hardy under western Oregon conditions.Brooks and Olmo 1996.
