Evergreen, self-fruiting tree or shrub has large, shiny leaves that emerge bright orange-red, slowly maturing to green. White flowers emerge in spring, followed by very large, orange, teardrop-shaped fruit with flavors reminiscent of apricot. Skin of fruit is easy to peel. Mid-season variety with attractive form.
Flourishes in well draining, enriched soil. Prune sparingly to remove dead or dying branches. Feed with a tree and shrub fertilizer in spring before new growth appears. Hardy to 12°.
These characteristics apply to the greater Sacramento area and nearby regions.
