Woods' or Coates's Greening

[sketch of apple]

This apple takes its name from the families of two
respectable farmers in Burlington County by whom it
was first cultivated.  It is a very pretty apple, something
like a green pippin but more pointed towards the
blossom end.  The skin is smoother and the flesh whiter
than the Pippin.  Is is a pleasant juicy tender and
sprightly apple well worth cultivation. It is an
early Winter Fruit and a good Bearer. A fine tree
grows on Dr Whartons place at [Foxhill]
The Stalk is thick and short and buried in a deep
hollow as is the blossom end.
