This variety was raised in America back in 1964 and is aptly named, for the berries have a most beautiful glowing red colour and ripen very early in the season, at about the same time as Honeyoye.
The flavour is very sweet and juicy and the berries are suitable for all purposes in addition they freeze very well.
Disease resistant qualities include resistance to Verticillium wilt, Leaf spot and partly resistant to mildew. A most attractive and enjoyable variety to grow, very seldom offered.

We have in place very rigorous standards for the health,
providence and uniformity of all our fruiting plants & trees. Our Nursery and the stock we grow is
inspected and passported for health regularly by DEFRA experts [formerly the Ministry of Agriculture]
and we have in place our own stringent controls and inspection programmes to ensure our fruiting
bushes and trees are the best, most disease free stocks available and truly beyond compare.
We always propagate from certified stock where this exists and have the highest standards regarding providence
and grading. If only the very best will do – as it should – then you can rely on a Chris Bowers fruiting
plant to give the most exemplary results available. We firmly believe that only the very healthiest
stock can and does produce vastly superior results – and it shows.
