Sown? Mid-March.

Flavour? Good, but not as good as our mainstay - Nectar.

And one for Tony - the first. Nice 'grapey' flavour. But the 'hedge' is so thick that I shall have one hell of a problem getting at the fruit.

A good sized Cherry - typically 18gm.

Truss shown is an occasional one - typically 20+.
