Apples Catalogue 2019
ADAMS PEARMAIN Herefordshire, England 1862 Oct 15 Nov Mar 14 Adams Pearmain is a an old-fashioned late dessert apple, one of the most popular varieties in Victorian England. It has an attractive 'pearmain' shape. This is a fairly dry apple - which is perhaps not regarded as a desirable attribute today. In spite of this it is actually a very enjoyable apple, with a rich aromatic flavour which in apple terms is usually described as Although it had 'shelf appeal' for the Victorian housewife, its autumnal colouring is probably too subdued to compete with the bright young things of the modern supermarket shelves. Perhaps this is part of its appeal; it recalls a bygone era where subtlety of flavour was appreciated - a lovely apple to savour in front of an open fire on a cold winter's day. Tree hardy. Does will in all soils, even clay. AERLIE RED FLESH (Hidden Rose, Mountain Rose) California 1930’s 19 20 20 Cook Oct 20 15 An amazing red fleshed apple, discovered in Aerlie, Oregon, which may be the best of all red fleshed varieties and indeed would be an outstandingly delicious apple no matter what color the flesh is. A choice seedling, Aerlie Red Flesh has a beautiful yellow skin with pale whitish dots, but it is inside that it excels. Deep rose red flesh, juicy, crisp, hard, sugary and richly flavored, ripening late (October) and keeping throughout the winter. The late Conrad Gemmer, an astute observer of apples with 500 varieties in his collection, rated Hidden Rose an outstanding variety of top quality. -

Blue Bonnet in Boston
Blue Bonnet in Boston By Caroline E. Jacobs Blue Bonnet in Boston CHAPTER I THE WAIL OF THE WE ARE SEVENS BLUE BONNET raised the blind of the car window, which had been drawn all the afternoon to shut out the blazing sun, and took a view of the flying landscape. Then she consulted the tiny watch at her wrist and sat up with a start. "Grandmother!" she said excitedly, "we'll soon be in Woodford; that is, in just an hour. We're on time, you know. Hadn't we better be getting our things together?" Mrs. Clyde straightened up from the pillows, which Blue Bonnet had arranged comfortably for her afternoon nap, and peered out at the rolling hills and green meadow-lands. "I think we have plenty of time, Blue Bonnet," she said, smiling into the girl's eager face. "But perhaps we would better freshen up a bit. You are sure we are on time?" "Yes, I asked the conductor when I went back to see Solomon at the last station. Four-twenty sharp, at Woodford, he told Solomon, and Solomon licked his hand with joy. Poor doggie! I don't believe he appreciates the value of travel, even if he has seen Texas and New York and Boston. He loathes the baggage-car, though I must say the men all along the way have been perfectly splendid to him. But then, any one would fall in love with Solomon, he's such a dear." Mrs. Clyde recalled the five dollar bill she had witnessed Mr. -

There was a significant effect of fruit position in the canopy on heat accumulation in fruit surface. Fruits born in southern part of the canopy were more heated than those from other tree parts. It was found that a blush contributed to an increase of fruit temperature, especially those from southern parts of the canopy. -

Archived at http://orgprints.org/8932/ Evaluation of apple fruit quality within the EU project Hidras Beurteilung der Fruchtqualität beim Apfel im Rahmen des EU-Projektes Hidras Markus Kellerhals and Christian Eigenmann1 Abstract The EU project Hidras (High Quality Disease Resistant Apples for a sustainable agriculture, QLK5-CT-2002- 01-01492) aims to identify genetic factors controlling apple fruit quality with the objective of increasing the acceptability of disease resistant apples. At Agroscope Changins-Wädenswil (ACW) we are performing ex- pert panel tests and consumer tests. The consumer inquiry during the public fair BEA 2005, end of April 2005 in Bern, Switzerland, resulted in comprehensive information on consumption trends in apple for differ- ent age groups. This work is coordinated with partners in Poland and Belgium. All the age groups considered flavour, juiciness and firmness as very important quality criteria for apples. The preference of apples to other fruit such as pears, bananas or citrus is more significant with adults and especially elder people. However, apple was the most favourite fruit species for all age classes. Almost one third of the adults prefer an apple to other snacks. On the other hand, children prefer chips and popcorn and only 12% prefer an apple to other snacks. The overall appearance and eating quality of scab resistant varieties (Ariane, Topaz and Goldrush) and non- resistant varieties (Gala, FAW 5878 and La Flamboyante) evaluated by the same consumers confirmed, that the resistant varieties were competitive in respect to fruit quality with the non-resistant varieties. Keywords: apple, breeding, consumer test, scab resistance, fruit quality Introduction The success of newly developed disease resistant apple varieties is largely dependent on their fruit quality. -
Consumer Evaluation of New, Antique, and Little Known Apple Varieties

Honeycrisp is an example of an apple that not only has become extremely popular, but Massachusetts has had a long history of apple Massachusetts appears to be a favorable place to grow production. Due to its favorable climate, it has been a this apple. leading producer in the United State of the variety In the past, private breeders, University breeding McIntosh, along with Maine, Vermont, and New York. programs, and nurseries received compensation for Over the past few years, the dynamics of apple patented varieties by receiving royalties from the sale production has changed dramatically due in large part of trees. Because apple breeding programs are very to the rapid expansion of apple production overseas, expensive to operate, the royalties received were especially in the southern hemisphere and a logarithmic insufficient to cover the cost to maintain a breeding increase in production in China.

INF03 Reduce Lists of Apple Varieites
ECE/TRADE/C/WP.7/GE.1/2009/INF.3 Specialized Section on Standardization of Fresh Fruit and Vegetables Fifty-fifth session Geneva, 4 - 8 May 2009 Items 4(a) of the provisional agenda REVISION OF UNECE STANDARDS Proposals on the list of apple varieties This note has been put together by the secretariat following the decision taken by the Specialized Section at its fifty-fourth session to collect information from countries on varieties that are important in international trade. Replies have been received from the following countries: Canada, Czech Republic, Finland, France, Germany, Italy, Netherlands, New Zealand, Poland, Slovakia, South Africa, Sweden, Switzerland and the USA. This note also includes the documents compiled for the same purpose and submitted to the fifty-second session of the Specialized Section. I. Documents submitted to the 52nd session of the Specialized Section A. UNECE Standard for Apples – List of Varieties At the last meeting the 51 st session of the Specialized Section GE.1 the delegation of the United Kingdom offered to coordinate efforts to simplify the list of apple varieties. The aim was to see what the result would be if we only include the most important varieties that are produced and traded. The list is designed to help distinguish apple varieties by colour groups, size and russeting it is not exhaustive, non-listed varieties can still be marketed. The idea should not be to list every variety grown in every country. The UK asked for views on what were considered to be the most important top thirty varieties. Eight countries sent their views, Italy, Spain, the Netherlands, USA, Slovakia, Germany Finland and the Czech Republic. -
The Bonnet Toun in 2006 I Was Invited to Curate a Small Mixed-Craft Show
The Bonnet Toun In 2006 I was invited to curate a small mixed-craft show at the Dick Institute in Kilmarnock, a small town south of Glasgow. I went up to Scotland from London, expecting it to be all kilts and highland crags. I didn’t know that I was going to the enchanting lowlands of Ayrshire, with its rolling fields and beautiful coastline. The show I was working on included some textiles and knitting, and knowing that there was a history of woollen trade in the area, I decided to do a little research. My children’s grandmother had been to high school in Kilmarnock, where there had been a thriving business in knitting regimental bonnets. She was born in the rival town of Stewarton nearby, where her father was headmaster of the local school, while most of the rest of the village were involved in someway with the local woollen trade. Stewarton is still known as the ‘Bonnet Toun’, and knitted hats are still manufactured there, although the process has changed some since the sixteenth century. Most famous for its regimental, beret-style hats, modern fashions are also represented. Popular traditional designs include the Glengarry, the Balmoral (named when the Queen’s children wore them when holidaying there) and the Tam O’Shanter, all meeting with stringent Ministry of Defence requirements. [Stewarton headmaster William Waddell wearing a bonnet] While English bonnets were made from cloth or velvet, the Scots bonnet was knitted in the round. Usually dark blue, indigo dyed, with a red ‘torrie’ or pompom on top, there were several design variations. -
