A violet-black guigne of middling size but highest quality, we have offered it to commemorate the several fruit amateurs who have preserved it during the past half-century. A seedling produced by John Parkhill in the Wenatchee district of Washington, formerly frequent in orchards as a pollenizer variety whose fruits were reserved for the grower's family use. Very high on the list of favorites. Early-mid June. On Mahaleb.
