Lisbon  elliptical to oblong and tapering to an inconspicuous neck. From the apex it tapers to a prominent symmetrical or pointed nipple.  The skin texture is generally smoother and less markedly ribbed than the Eureka. The rind is of medium thickness and the surface finely pitted.  The color is yellow at maturity.  The juice content of the Lisbon is of good flavor, very acidic, and easily extracted.  The seed content varies but there are usually few to none.  This variety tends to ripen in the fall in dessert locations and in the winter and early spring in coastal areas.
