Source Note: This entry derives from Stark Bros. Nurseries & Orchards Co.'s 1910 Year Book, but the original passage is incomplete with several passages illegible or missing. The description lacks details on size, form, stem/cavity/calyx structure, flavor specifics, and storage behavior that would typically appear in a complete pomological description. A more complete primary source or additional contemporary references would strengthen identification.
