Yellow Bourbon

Also Bourbon Amarelo

Yellow Bourbon is a yellow-fruited form of Bourbon selected in Brazil. Breeders there keep named lines such as 'Bourbon Amarelo MG 009', which are used as parents in hybrid programmes. Apart from fruit colour it behaves like red Bourbon: tall, productive for a traditional variety, and susceptible to leaf rust.
