Heirloom variety originating in Italy, seed brought to the USA in the 1900s by an Italian immigrant.
Fruit weighs 120-250 grams and is a large, plump plum with a nipple at the apical end that can give it a heart-shaped appearance.
Dense, juicy flesh with a deliciously rich flavour, excellent in salads.
Vigorous plant with regular wispy foliage and indeterminate growth.
Good mid-season production.
