ITS VARIETIES. 95 set, and covered with minute russety dots on the shaded side ; but deep redish orange, streaked with deeper color, and strewed with minute rus- sety dots on the side exposed to the sun. Eye, large and open, with reflexed segments, and set in a wide, deep, and angular basin. Stalk, slender, three quarters of an inch long, and obliquely inserted, with fre- quently a fleshy protuberance on one side of it, in a rather shallow cavity, which is lined with green russet. Flesh, yellowish, firm, crisp, very juicy, sweet, and lacking acidity, which gives it a sickly flavor. An apple of second-rate quality, suitable either for culinary purposes or the dessert; in use from November to March. The tree is an upright grower and a free bearer, but requires to be grown in good soil. In America this is esteemed as a cider apple. 148. GOLDEN PIPPIN.—Evelyn. Raii Hist. ii. 1447. Switz. Fr.
