Notes: Very late ripening—November/December—of small fruit, but extremely heavy bearing and fruit hangs on the tree all winter, with a little bit dropping every day until March or April. A great wildlife tree, but also the seedlings make especially vigorous rootstocks. Grafted trees on these rootstocks are twice as productive compared to grafted trees on “ordinary” rootstocks.
