HALF-SWEET, HALF-SOUR 

 APPLE 



This picture shows the curious effects 

 that sometimes result from the natural 

 or artificial cross- fertilizing of two 

 fruits. As a rule cross-fertilization 

 does not show its results immediately 

 in the fruit, but only in the progeny. 

 And in this case the tree bearing this 

 apple also bore pure red and pure 

 yellow apples on the same branches 

 with those having variegated sections 

 of different widths.
