Large round fruit is produced in autumn, a bright orange colour turning red in maturity. The riper they are eaten, the sweeter they will be, losing their bitterness day by day. The pulp will then melt in the mouth. The dark green and shiny leaves will turn a superb orangey-red in autumn. Forms a lovely rounded tree with an attractive cracked bark.
