This is not only a good apple for the table, but it is also one 
of the very finest cider fruits, and its fruitfulness renders it a 
great favourite with orchardists. The tree grows rather irregu-

and the apples have the good quality of hanging late upon the 
trees, without injury, while the tree thrives well on sandy, light

Fruit of medium size, rather oblong. Skin smooth, of a fine 
dark red, with a few streaks, and a little yellow ground, appear-

with fine plaits. Flesh yellow, firm, crisp, with a rich, high 
flavour. November to May.

Fruit large, irregularly oblate. Skin whitish, yellow, waxen,
