BUYERS NOTES
Heirloom variety, best grown as a cordon outdoors but will be earlier to form ripe fruit in the greenhouse. The large 400 – 500g (14oz – 18oz) flatter than round fruits have a streaky orange/ red skin. The flesh is juicy, thick and meaty of orange/ yellow/ red shades on ripening and few seeds. The flesh is sweet with a slight acid balance.
Sowing Information:
Sow seed on the surface of a free-draining compost and cover with about 6mm (1/4in) of compost or vermiculite. Place in a propagator at 18-21C (65-70F) until after germination which takes 7-10 days.
Growing Information:
Transplant seedlings when large enough to handle into 7.5cm (3in) pots. Plant outdoors, 45cm (18in) apart once all frost risk has passed, or plant in the greenhouse in individual large pots, or 3 plants per growbag when 20cm (8in) high. Plants require sideshooting and support for best yields. Water and feed plants regularly with a high potash feed one the first truss has set.
