Description
Our newest and best early coloring red strain of Delicious. Originated as a complete tree sport of Campbell Strain in the orchards of Ray Sandidge, Entiat, Washington. This strain starts out as a stripe and fills in to a solid red ten days ahead of harvest. We feel this variety will give eastern growers a distinct early coloring and market advantage. Royalty Fee
