Origin & history
An early red bell hybrid bred to colour up fast in short seasons, so northern growers can sell red rather than only green fruit.

| PVY | Potato Virus Y (Potyvirus yituberosi) | resistant | Breeder declared |
Breeder declared means the resistance was stated by whoever breeds or sells the seed. That is not a reason to disbelieve it, and for most resistance genes it is the only evidence that exists: the breeder screens the line and publishes the result in their catalog, and no independent party re-tests it. We label it rather than quietly presenting it as though someone had checked.
