The variety has the breeding number HB.246/5/5 and its pedigree includes Maris Concord, Domen, and Maris Otter lines, as well as derivatives of the wild barley H. spontaneum. The variety's use is limited to feed purposes due to the grain's tendency toward dormancy, which prevents the rapid germination required for malting.
The plant has a stiffer stem and is characterized as earlier-maturing compared to the standard of that time, the Proctor variety. Genetically, the variety possesses resistance to powdery mildew due to the presence of a resistance gene at the Mla locus, and it is used as a genetic resource in modern breeding.
