PLATE LXIX. 
2. BRINGEWOOD PIPPIN. 
This variety was a seedling grown by Mr. Thomas Andrew Knight. He obtained it by 
impregnating the stigmas of the Golden Pippin , with pollen from the anthers of the Golden Harvey . 
Description. —Fruit: small, little more than two inches wide and an inch and three quarters 
high, almost round and something like a flattened Golden Pippin. Skin : of a firm rich yellow 
colour, covered with greyish dots, russety round the eye, and marked with a few russety dots on the 
side next the sun. Eye : small and open, with reflexed segments, and placed in a shallow basin. 
Stalk : short and slender, inserted in a moderately deep cavity, which is lined with greenish grey 
russet. Flesh : yellowish, firm, crisp and sugary, with a rich and perfumed flavour. 
A very beautiful little dessert apple. It is very like the Yellow Ingestrie , but is far more 
valuable, as it keeps sound longer. It is in season from December to February and March. 
The tree is hardy, but of weak and slender growth. It succeeds well on the paradise stock, 
but never attains a large size.
