Overall Taste Yield Ease	Richmond, Georgia, United States Frost Free Season: 183 - 203 days Soil Texture: Sand Garden Size: Large - More than 1,600 square feet (40' x 40') Sun Exposure: More than 8 hours per day
Under my conditions this cultivar is as early as Sieva(Carolina), larger fatter, easier to shell, and a better producer. All around an excellent large baby lima.
