The variety was bred in Cambridge by crossing Little Joss and Victor varieties. By modern standards, the plant is tall, as it does not contain the Rht-B1 or Rht-D1 semi-dwarfing alleles characteristic of Green Revolution-era varieties.
In comparative scientific studies, the variety is treated as a historical specimen, demonstrating specific root system development parameters that differ from modern commercial hybrids. Information regarding its yield and baking quality is absent in the literature.
