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
Visa did ok in all areas. But it not as tasty, productive, or visually appealing as an "A" grade Galia type. I would rate it a "B".
