Aurora. 
A very large and showy apple, well known in Cayuga Co., 
but an old fruit from Connecticut. It is a good, sprightly 
fruit, though not very high flavoured, but its remarkably hand- 
some appearance and large size render it one of the most popular 
fruits in market. The tree is thrifty and makes a compact, 
neat head, bears regular crops, and the fruit is always fair and 
handsome. 
Fruit very large, roundish. Skin slightly uneven, greenish- 
yellow, boldly splashed and marbled with stripes of purplish-red.
