Comment cultivar
Kaido:
Väga magusa ja ilusa välimusega õun jõululauale. Laste lemmik. Uude aastasse säilitamisel muutuvad õunad aga liialt jahuseks ja puderjaks. Puu kannab tublisti ja nii igal aastal. Kui lapsed majas, soovitaksin kindlasti istutada aeda üks Karamba puu. Kuid ainult üks, sest puu annab tublisti saaki ning magemagusatest praktiliselt happevabasest õuntest saab üsna pea isu täis.
