The fruits are medium-large, round, with dark red skin and yellow freestone flesh. In California conditions, ripening occurs approximately 45 days after the Redhaven variety.
The variety is intended for fresh consumption. Studies on the winter hardiness of the variety's flower buds were conducted in the context of assessing damage from low temperatures.
