A good annual bearer of fair handsome fruit. Resembles the Fameuse, but larger and more hardy and fully equal in quality to this standard sort. November to MCINTOSH RED.

Monmouth Pippin (Red Cheek Pippin)—Large: greenish yellow, with a fine red cheek; juicy, tender and good. Tree erect, vigorous and productive. Keeps well till March or April. Newtown Pippin—Yellow—Medium to large, roundish, yellow : very firm, crisp, juicy, with a high agreeable flavor.
