CUTLER GRIEVE. Dessert, November to January, 

 medium, 2f by 2j, rounded, flattened, conical. Colour 

 golden-yellow, almost covered with brilliant scarlet 

 flush, under which are seen very broad stripes. Skin, 

 greasy. Flesh, white, firm, close grained, juicy, sweet, 

 but no particular flavour. Eye, closed in a medium, 

 much ribbed basin. Stem, slender in a fairly deep, wide, 

 cavity, which is often a little russeted. Growth, 

 vigorous, rather upright ; fertility, good. Leaf, round- 

 ish, finely curved serrate. Origin, raised by Mr. James 

 Grieve, and introduced by Mr. Storrie. The brilliant 

 appearance of this apple together with its season suggest 

 that it is the successor of Worcester Pearmain, for which 

 market growers have long been searching.
