Characterization: Medium size, sometimes above,
quite regular smooth except for individual ribbing.
Ground color varying shades of yellow from a rather
pale to slightly coppery cast, sometimes slightly
blushed.  Stem rather long, medium stout to rather
slender.  Flesh white, but very slightly tinged yellow
very fine grain, tender, juicy, sprightly subacid,
- most too much so for eating fresh - fairly rich,
better quality than many varieties of its season.
A rather attractive apple when well grown.
