Sweet, aromatic, medium-large, yellow-fleshed freestone combines excellent flavor with late-blooming flowers and disease resistance, making it more reliable than most. Delicious, excellent quality peach with a very sweet, tangy mango-like flavor and excellent smooth texture.

Excellent bud hardiness and late-blooming flowers resist and avoid bud damage from late spring frosts, thus bettering the chances of producing a nice crop even in a late freeze year, thus succeeding in harsh springs where most other peaches fail completely.
