Glowing Coals

Apple

Remarkable in three important respects, viz. large size, great beauty and superb quality. Enormous in size, ordinary specimens weighing 16 to 20 ounces, one half of each specimen bright, glossy red, and the other half an intense scarlet. As they hang on the tree they may be seen for a long distance, appearing among the dense foliage like glowing coals. The flesh is of extra high quality, being of a rich yellow color, smooth, refined and attractive; flesh crisp, rich and of a high, rich, sprightly sub-acid flavor. An early and heavy bearer as well as a strong grower. Season at Monmouth early in September. 1st class, ea., 25c.
