Nursery contributed plant descriptions

'Higgins' was released in 1955 by Murphy and B. Fry at the University of Georgia. 'Higgins' was selected from the cross Yuga x White Male pollinator. The fruit is medium in size and sweet in flavor and as with all Muscanines this one is great for canning or eating fresh.
