1、 Size difference

The average golden awn is about 915 to 1200 grams, and the largest one can weigh 2400 grams, while the imperial concubine awn is much smaller, with an average of 300 to 500 grams, 500 to 600 grams for the larger one and 150 grams for the smaller one, so there are obvious differences in size

2、 Fruit color difference

Golden awn is cyan when it is not fully mature, the peel color becomes orange yellow after maturity, and the pulp is also orange yellow. The maturity period is from June to July every year. The imperial concubine awn is purplish red when it is not fully mature. When it is mature, the background color changes to dark yellow and covered with a layer of bright red. The peel looks very attractive. The fruit period is similar to golden awn, which is about from late June to early July every year
