Remarks: Scions received 4/15/09 from Stark Bros. Many
of records give tree variety as Main G. Golden
first word evidently being a misreading of
Mam, brief for Mammoth.
This variety was variously compared
with Yellow Skin and Winter
Vandevere but since the
identity of those 2 varieties is
uncertain, there seems to be
no good reason for not letting
this go as the Stark's Mammoth
Grimes Golden until there
is a better understanding
as to what that variety really is.
