The medium-sized, oblong brightly green coloured fruit is of very good quality. The fruit flesh is melting, juicy, deep orange, aromatic and relatively free from fibres. The average fruit dimensions are: length 11.7 cm
by 7.8 cm width and an average weight of 280 g (range: 240—300 g). Lenticels are white changing to brownish-green at maturity. Without treatment the fruit is heavily attacked by anthracnose and to a lesser degree
by powdery mildew. The fruits do not store well on the tree (Griesbach, 2003)
