Inside, right around the seed cavities, there were slight hollow spaces. At first I worried it might turn out dry, but it ended up wonderfully sweet and juicy. The fruit stayed sweet all the way until the end of the season.

Yield was excellent. The plant grew strong and vigorous, and ended up ripening on the late side. Beautiful, oblate, deep-pink slicers in the 10-18 oz (300-500 g) range. The flesh is sweet and remarkably rich. Didn&#8217;t notice any hollow pockets in mine.
