110 BRITISH roMOLOfiY, ETC. 



An apple of very ordinary quality, which seems only suitable for culi- 

 nary purposes ; it is in use from October to January. 



I received this variety from Mr. James Lake, of Bridgewater, and 

 it seems to be so like the description of Diel's Grosser Gestreifter Her- 

 mannsapfel, that I have adopted it as a synonyme.

Fruit, large, three inches and a half wide, and two inches and three 

 quarters high ; roundish, somewhat flattened and angular. Skin, yel- 

 lowish, marked with broad pale red stripes on the shaded side ; and 

 broad broken stripes of bright crimson on the side next the sun ; the 

 whole surface entirely covered with a thick bloom, like thin hoar frost. 

 Eye, very small, set in a shallow and plaited basin. Stalk, short, inserted 

 in a wide and round cavity. Flesh, yellowish-white, tinged with red at 

 the surface under the skin, brisk, juicy, rich, and slightly acid. 



A beautiful and very good culinary apple, of second-rate quality ; it is 

 in use from October to December.

Fruit, very large, three inches and three quarters wide, and three 

 inches high ; roundish and flattened, with irregular and prominent 

 angles or ribs extending from the base to the apex. Skin, deep yellow, 

 tinged with green on the shaded side ; but bright deep scarlet where 

 exposed to the sun, generally extending over the whole surface. Eye, 

 closed, with long acuminate segments, and set in a wide and deep 

 basin. Stalk, short and slender, inserted in a deep funnel-shaped cavity, 

 which is generally lined with russet. Flesh, white, with a slight tinge 

 of green, delicate, tender and juicy, with a brisk and pleasant flavor. 



A beautiful and showy apple for culinary purposes, but not of first-rate 

 quality ; it is in use from October to Christmas. 



The tree is a strong and vigorous grower, but not a very abundant 

 bearer. It succeeds well on the paradise stock.
