Note on source limitations: This Downing description (1900) is brief and lacks details on tree characteristics, detailed dimensional measurements, and specific stem/cavity/basin anatomy that would further aid identification. If you are identifying an unknown apple thought to be Corse's Favorite, the combination of Canadian origin, oblate depressed form, yellow-green skin, whitish brisk-subacid flesh, and September maturity are the primary identifying markers from period literature.
