I've seen a few articles about the variety Falls Gold but I don't see it mentioned much here. Jon rates it quite high from what I've read. Does anyone know if it is an early or late ripening cultivar?? It sounds like it has a very unique taste and would love to try it sometime.

If anyone is growing it and would like to trade for other cuttings please PM me. :)

Thanks Michael. I've read that Fall Gold was a syn. for Alma but there is also a Falls Gold with a ? mark as to whether is was the same as Fall Gold. I think Jon obtained Falls Gold from a collector in Atlanta area so I was curious if there were any differences. Maybe its the same as the Galbun/Gulbun thing.. some say they are the same some say they are different lol.

Sounds like it is similar to Alma indeed.
