PLATE XLIII. 
4. WINTER COLMAN. 
[Syn : Norfolk Colmau ; Norfolk Bearer; Norfolk Storing .] 
There is no history given of the origin of this Apple. 
Description .—Fruit : above medium sized, roundish and flattened. Skin ; pale yellow, 
mottled with red on the shaded side, but deep red on the side next the sun. Eye : open, set in a 
rather shallow and plaited basin. Stalk : short, thick, and deeply inserted. Flesh : firm, crisp and 
briskly acid. 
A culinary apple of first-rate quality, in season from September to February. 
The tree is a strong and vigorous grower, so much so that when young it is a long time 
coming into bearing. When grafted on the paradise stock it grows less freely and produces 
abundantly.
