Comments	Fruit size medium to large; shape intermediate to flat, truncate conic to rectangular, convex, slightly ribbed; skin solid red with slight striping, thick, waxy; flesh crisp, creamy; flavor subacid, aromatic. High quality dessert apple also good for cider. Season mid to very late. Vigorous, upright early bearing tree, spur type habit; produces annually, needs some thinning. Self-fruited.
