There is about the limit of confusion
in this set-up.  It seems
doubtful if any one of the lots is
in fact, Lowland Raspberry; and
from the Accession records, none
of them should be that variety. Just
how they happened to be identified
as Lowland Raspberry is not now
clear although each one undoubtedly
does have some of the characteristics
of that apple.  However the notes made
in the various years on the specimens
from Arlington rather regularly expressed
a doubt as to the correct identification
of the fruit; also questioned what Lowland
Raspberry would be like grown at
Arlington.
