| Large heads and lots of side branches, medium beads. An excellent producer! Best I have ever grown. Burpee variety disappointed not available in 2018. Grew all summer. Would grow again if seeds available. |

| This variety performs reasonably well here. It is sort of middle of the road among the varieties that I have grown. It is early and forms tight but somewhat irregular heads. Good sideshoot production. |
