One of my favorite pale yellow (clear skinned) yellow varieties - taste is superb. Productivity is usually avg to high-avg in my garden. I do sometimes get a bit of superficial blush at blossom end when weather is very hot, but for the most part, fruits are pale yellow both inside and out. Has always been very late season for me, even here in Texas, but worth the wait. Vigorous, tall plants with potato leaf foliage.
I also get a bit of minor (but deep) radial cracking with this one every time I grow it, no matter how even the watering is. It's easily enough cut off when slicing and generally does not extend too far out from the stem end. Other growers have made similar observations regarding this variety.
This variety is a family heirloom originally grown by Lillian Bruce of Manchester, Tennessee.
One vendor has this plant for sale.
