The Apples of New York. 93 



open, pubescent; lobes often long and acuminate, reflexed. Basin shallow to 

 moderately deep, medium in width, obtuse or somewhat abrupt, often furrowed 

 or compressed, irregularly wrinkled, often with a tendency to mammiform 

 protuberances. 



Skin thick, tough, smooth, pale yellow or greenish, mottled an.d blushed with 

 bright red, splashed and striped with purplish-carmine, conspicuously marked 

 with areolar dots and covered with a thin whitish bloom which makes the 

 fruit somewhat dull in color. Dots large, numerous, whitish, areolar with 

 russet or gray center. Prevailing effect in highly colored specimens beautiful 

 and attractive, the color being a deep dark red, but as grown in Western New 

 York the color effect is that of pale yellow striped with red. The skin takes 

 a brilliant polish. 



Calyx tube generally tends toward funnel-shape but is sometimes conical. 

 Stamens marginal to median. 



Core medium or above, closed or partly open; core lines clasping; often part 

 of the cells are not well developed because of abortive seeds. Carpels smooth, 

 ovate to roundish, or obovate, slightly emarginate, mucronate. Seeds medium 

 to large, plump, acute, numerous, rather narrow, long, smooth or sometimes 

 slightly tufted, variable in color. 



Flesh white, often tinged with red, firm, moderately coarse, crisp, moderately 

 tender, juicy, mild subacid, sometimes slightly astringent, with a Fameuse-like 

 aroma, pleasant, good or possibly very good in quality. 



Season November to January but often some portion of the fruit may keep 

 till April. 



Use similar to Fameuse, suitable for dessert. Cooks quickly but the color 

 and texture of the cooked fruit are not good.
