Cat. ed. 3, n. 274. Fruit, small, conical, even, and regularly shaped.

Eye, small and open, even with the surface, and surrounded with a few shallow plaits. Stalk, three quarters of an inch long, inserted in a small, and shallow depression, which, together with the base, is entirely covered with russet. Flesh, green- ish-yellow, firm, crisp, and very juicy, brisk, sugary, and vinous. A delicious little dessert apple of the first quality, in use from November to May. The tree is hardy, a free upright grower, and a good bearer. It attains about the middle size. If grafted.
