Wood wiry, dark purplish brown, covered with 

 a broken, slate-coloured epidermis, the buds and 

 extremities of the shoots densely covered with 

 black hairs. 



Leaves middle-sized, acutely ovate, regularly 

 serrated, very downy beneath and on the foot- 

 stalks. 



Fruit roundish oblong, about the size of a large 

 Golden Pippin, with a small calyx and hollow open 

 eye, wholly destitute of angles. Stalk short, 

 slender. Skin bright yellow, tinged with red on 

 the sunny side, with many indistinct white spots. 

 Flesh yellowish, firm, juicy, and rich; nearly as 

 high flavoured as that of the Golden Pippin.
