Bred by Tozer for the Northern European climate. Up to four weeks earlier to harvest than American Hybrids. Fruits average 2 - 3 lbs with a very high level of marketable fruits and a heavy total yield.
Autumn Crown produces an abundance of attractive early maturing butternut-coloured scalloped fruits each weighing around 4.5 lbs from reduced vines. The long- storing fruits have a unique ‘sweet melon’ aroma when cut and the flesh is a deep orange with a small seed cavity.
