Owner's comments

Late ripening (late October/early November) in mediterranean climate. Excellent flavor improves in storage (gets considerably sweeter). Excellent storage. Fruit size is small. Dense and somewhat tart fresh off the tree. Great apple for eating out of hand. Scab resistant. Highly recommended as a long storage apple with excellent flavor and easy to grow.
