Bough Apple
July & Aug.

This is a beautiful large light yellow coloured
apple, white flesh, tender;  juicy and high flavored.
It is certainly the finest dessert apple at the 
season in which it ripens which is in July and August.  It
is peculiarly adapted to the purposes of a market
fruit as it always commands a preference over
every other kind.  The form of the Bough Apple is
rather long, full plump and even, stalk short.
I have seen some Bough Apples, equal in size
to a large Priestly or Pippin.  The tree is vigorous
the form round, foliage  luxuriant and of a 
deep green.
