Very large, slightly flattened bulbs are juicy, mild, and very sweet. We have heard tales of people eating these like apples. The original seed was brought from the island of Corsica to WA by French soldier Peter Pieri around the turn of the 20th century. Not a keeper. \u003cbr\u003e110-120 days. Long day.
