Twinkle is a normal leaf early variety with a very consistent maturity at the start of the season.
Twinkle is a proven early variety, grown commercially since 1997. The variety produces a higher yield than Avola, at a smaller sieve size. Twinkle has proven reliability when drilled early on light soils, combined with a semi-determinate habit to help in variable seasons.
