I have grown this variety for 3 years and find them to be very good although I have not had other varieties as they don't seem to be available locally. The year before was a bust as we had a severe drought and I did not provide enough water. Used a soaker hose the past season and it worked well.

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

I find this cultivar a bit overated. It is a good performer and produces attractive uniform roots. Flavor is second level, compared to Centennial or Jewel. Yields are good, but not better than Jewel.
