Remarks: Scions from N. Y. Sta 1902
Beach describes variety in Apples of N. Y. but
difficult to make these specimens check with his
decription, though scions from which propagated
here came from Geneva, according to records.
It is assumed that it is correct, however, discrepencies
being due to place effect on development, but if so,
that effect has been pronounced.

Characterization: Notes mostly 1926, [supplemented] by 1927.
Size medium to larger, roundish conic to slightly oblate conic;
indistinctly ribbed.
Ground color yellow - self colored - with a little
grayish overcast. Dots numerous, variable; some are
minute, submerged almost imperceptible but brownish
irregular, conspicuous dots and light leather cracking
pretty generally distributed over surface. Cavity
broad and deep, heavily russeted; stem ¾" to 1", slender; basin medium
in depth and width; sepals long, slender; recurved
eye partially open; basin is
sometimes slightly ribbed. Flesh white suggesting
Fameuse in color, fine grain, rather firm with
considerable body; not fully tender, fairly juicy,
sweet with quality apparently varying (over)
