Originated
in 1860 in Excelsior, Minnesota from the seeds of the
Cherry Crab. Widely popular in the South due to its
hardiness and early bearing abilities. When grown in
colder areas it is a good keeper; otherwise considered
a poor keeper. Skin is pale greenish-yellow with brilliant
red |
| striping.
Ripens in August to September in most of the South but
later in mountain areas. |
