Cultivation

Origin: in Salisbury, Md., by Agr. Res. Serv., U.S. Dept. of Agriculture, and Maryland Agr. Expt. Sta. Introd. in 1975. MdUS 2359 (Fairland × Midland) × Md US 2713 (Red glow × Surecrop), cross made in 1964, selected in 1966 by D.H. Scott, A.O. Draper, and LC. Haut. Tree: vigorous; prolific runner producer; resistant to five races of red-stele root rot, moderately resistant to verticillium wilt, leaf scorch and leaf spot, partially resistant to powdery mildew; has been productive and fruit attractive in narrow, matted beds in Maryland, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Ohio, Michigan, and Missouri. Recommended for soils where red stele may be a problem and where early ripening is desired. Fruit: size medium; symmetrical conic; skin deep red, tough, glossy; flesh red, uniform, firm, handles well, flavor sweet; ripens 2 to 3 days after Earlidawn; very good for frozen pack, promising for U-pick operations.
