This cultivar is quite dissapointing here, It is only a few days earlier than Silver Princess and half the size. Short plant, shoots about 6 inches above the ground, Smaller even than the earlier Silver Knight. Flavor is acceptable for an early maturing cultivar but inferior to Silver Princess, about even with Silver Knight. Small ears less than 7 inches.
