This cultivar is early enoght to produce here, but it is not an attractive plant, tho large. Heads are small and irregular. While satisfactory, there are a number of cultivars that are superior for my conditions. |

Tried this for late-August harvest based on the suggestion of heat tolerance. It was really ugly. The traditonal Packman is iffy then, but it looked much better. Late September harvest looked OK, but there are many choices for that slot. |
