    This variety is not uniform in growth. It sends out many side roots and has a moderate percentage of misshapen roots. Flavor leaves a lot to be desired. Only useful in my opinion as a novelty to brighten up a display. It is relatively early, but there are better tasting varieties that match it in DTM.
