Deep orange-flesh variety. Origin: Queensland, Australia. Tree: of medium vigor with a spreading, highly manageable canopy. With annual pruning, easily kept at a height and spread of 2-2.5 m and a consistent heavy production of 55-90 kg. Fruit: dark green with sharp, fleshy spines that do not flatten upon maturity, making the proper harvest time difficult to judge and making handling after harvest difficult. Average fruit weight 6.7 kg, 35% edible pulp with 192 seeds per fruit constituting 17% of total fruit weight. Pulp is deep orange and soft to medium-firm with a strong, sweet flavor and aroma. Flesh is more easily separated from the rag than that of other cultivars.
