Origin not established, thought to be a mutation of Florentine Beauty, differing only in color.
Costoluto fruit weighing 180 to 300 grams, flattened and evenly ribbed on the upper 2/3 of the body.
Yellow color fading to red/pink at maturity.
Firm, yellow flesh, sometimes with red veins. Small, often hollow cavities, little gel and few seeds. Mild, sweet flavor.
Very large plant, indeterminate growth, regular foliage.
Tends to produce "wood" rather than fruit, prune regularly and carefully.
Harvest in the second half of the season.
