    This is a high quality old timer. Very susceptible to both heat and SVB, so I have not had much luck growing it in Georgia. In the New River Valley of Virginia it was an excellent producer. At that time and place I grew lots of C. maximas including Hubbards, Bananas and Gold Nugget. This was the best tasting.
