Narrative

Averages 1 cm taller, flowers an average of one day later and matures one day earlier when compared to the Brewer check. Plants are strongly branched at the base which imparts a bushy structure that enables the canopy to remain somewhat erect during the growing season. Uniform large seeds (100 seeds weight an average of 7.0 g vs. 6.0 g for Brewer). Seeds large with yellow cotyledons and seed coats light green and lack mottling. Large seed size and lack of seedcoat mottling are features that should appeal to markets in the U.S. and internationally. In cooking time tests from 1994-1996, required 22.0 minutes compared to 21.6 minutes for Brewer.
