A light dark yellow variety with good size and shape on the roots. Average yield, not competitive with Carolina Ruby, Covington, or Beauregard in production. A semi-bush vine that does not run all over creation. I also grow the Ivy leaf Carver, which is a better producer. Did not care for the taste or texture. Not one I intend to grow again.
