- Red-fleshed fruit with average flavor and size, and numerous bracts.
- Origin: Nicaragua
- Fruit: oblong; medium large, 438 g; flesh red; skin thick, red; quality acceptable, 15.78 Brix; 45 days from bloom to harvest in Southern California; harvest late June to late December.
- Plant: stems thin, relatively short, grayish green; areoles have 6-8 spines in a random pattern, 3-8 mm long; segment between areoles straight to slightly concave, which exposes the spines and makes this cultivar look very spiny; flowers large, petals white, calyx yellow, with shades of red on the edges, anthers and stigma lobes yellow, stigma lobes are lighter than anthers.
- Tolerance to cold and heat average; grows well in full sun; commercial potential low because of spines.
