The best Japanese variety so far, it has deep orange flesh, high flesh/seed ratio and very sweet flavour. Earliest variety to ripen. Thinning fruit will enhance fruit size.

We have found by cincturing in summer, the August crop has a much larger crop and better fruit size.

ACACIA RIDGE, QLD, Australia

This has been grafted to a tree as a "double graft" with a Mariposa plum so that they can cross-pollinate one another.I am so happy with it!It flowered and "fruited" already technically, but dropped all its fruit as it really is far too young and small...

COBURG, VIC, Australia

Good cropper. Nice juicy fruit. Need to net to protect from birds. Tends to crop about 3 weeks before Mariposa (not sure if this is due to the variety or due to position).

Bought this on dwarf rootstock. Growing more strongly in it's second year, flowered this year but no fruit yet. Bought because it's self pollinating.Fruited in year 3, lovely little sweet fruits. Got leaf curl badly in year 4.
