Owner's comments
The tree is generally trouble-free. It grows in my lawn area, and has a one-metre diameter area around the base kept weed-free manually. Grows pretty vigorously, flowers quite late and blossom has never had a problem with frost. Other varieties grow nearby, including a Laxton Superb, which also blossoms late. Needs thinning some years, generally crops well. A very long season of use, pleasant to eat over a six-month period, from picking in late September or October until March or April, storing in an unheated room. Fruit often on the small side.
