Thanks, somehow I left GGWT out this year but it will be on grow list for next, along with Terhune. :yes:

It is super productive, GGWT! And a great sweet flavor, with beautiful colors! I will post some cut pictures for you :)

The plants are still thriving in this 93 degree heat, and the first sets of fruit are ripe and off the plants. I think I will cut these back some, do some foliage treatments, and hope for a resurgence when the temperature drops low enough to allow pollination. I will start with a shot of phosphorus, which should promote flowering and fruit set into August and September.

I have had some losses: three to TSWV (Rebel Yell, Olive Hill, GGWT) and a later one to TSWV (Sgt. Peppers). Right now I have some Septoria on all of the plants, but have good growth at all stems.

1st ripe fruit- Neves Azorean Red, 14 oz.

I am very impressed by this plant's resistance thus far, and has a very neat and tidy RL pattern that does not get too "bushy". Excellent cultivar!

Thanks Worth! It had such an interesting history via Carolyn, Mr. Neves, and the remote Azores Islands, that I had to grow it. It was also based on your recommendations as a must-grow that I planted one out this year. Great cultivar!!

And NAR was probably from Portugal since many there moved to the Azores.
