I had heard/read that Prosperosa was not a heavy producer but my plants are really cranking out the fruit! They remind me a lot of Rosa Bianca with more purple on the skin. They're about the same shape and size.

Louisiana Long Green is super productive, as always. These plants are healthier than the Prosperosa for me. They always have several fruit on them at various stages of growth. I cooked five of them last night. Flavor is always excellent. I think this is my fourth season growing these.

I miss White Beauty from last year. Wish I'd started at least a couple of plants. Maybe in 2009.
