Orchard records give the Acc. No. as 6659 but this
is obviously an error, No. 6658 being clearly correct.
Onthe fruit (label) for 1925 it was noted that there were
several apples under the name Jones Winter. One
such from New Zealand was propagated. The Pom. No. record
(no. 40793) may show this to be the New Zealand apple (see over)

Characterization: Composite from several seasons.
Good size, roundish conic, commonly with apex tapering
sharply, indistinctly ribbed, usually fairly regular.
Ground color pale yellow or greenish depending on maturity,

scattered, raised, and dark colored. Cavity varying
from narrow and shallow with very short fleshy stem
to moderately broad and deep with stem ⅜" and medium.
