This variety was imported by Professor J. L. Budd of Iowa, in 1885. It
resembles Early Richmond but ripens ten days later. It appeared on the
fruit list of the American Pomological Society in 1899 and in 1909
Morello Hâtive was given as a synonym. This variety, however, is of the
Amarelle type while Morello Hâtive is a true Morello.
