Ehime Kashi No. 48 (Beni Princess)
ShipmentEarly March
This breed was bred in Ehime Prefecture, and its mother is Beni Madonna (Ehime Kashi No. 28), and its father is Kanpei, making it a true citrus thoroughbred. This is a promising new variety that heralds the arrival of spring, with the texture of Beni Madonna and the sweet juice of Kanpei.
