Produces 10-15% greater seed yield than Tyson. Best seed quality among all commercial cultivars in Australia. Plant has early branch habit, semi-erect and medium in height (641 mm). Primary branches erect and average about four/plant. Stem woody and anthocyanin pigmentation is absent to weak. Leaves large (15 mm long by 8 mm wide) and light/medium green in color. Plant produces purplish pink (0.2% white) flowers and medium/long peduncle. Pods medium/large, short beak, medium green in color, and average 1.70 ovules/pod. Seeds medium/large (17 to 20 g/100 seeds), have an angular shape and medium ribbing. Seed color at ripening light green, and the coat color at maturity is light yellow fading to cream/yellow with age. Flowers approx. 92 days after sowing in Western Australia compared to 107 and 109 days for Tyson and Dooen, respectively.
