Erect bearing. Vigorous and relatively fertile. Delicate and sweet berries, mature in June-July. Lovely airy bunches of these translucent pinky-white berries. Easy to pick, and sweeter than most of the other varieties. Excellent fresh, they are also appreciated in jellies, juices, sorbets, as in cakes. Crossbreeding of 'Heinemann's Rote Spatlese' and 'Red Lake'.
