The fruits are round, uniform bicolors weighing 7-10.5 oz (200-300 g). The base color is a greenish-amber covered in pinkish-red spots. Inside, the flesh is olive-green with pinkish-red marbling, tender, juicy, and has a very good sweet flavor with a strong fruity aroma and finish. Yields well both in the greenhouse and outdoors. Since this is a new breeding line, you might see some segregation.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>I got my seeds straight from the breeder.
