495. DALMAHOY PIPPIN.

496. DANVERS WINTER SWEET.
- Synonyme.—Epse’s Sweet.
In Massachusetts, from a town in which this variety takes its name, it has for a long time been one of the best market apples; but we think it inferior to the Ladies’ Sweeting. It is an abundant bearer, and a very rapid tree in its growth.
Fruit, of medium size, roundish-oblong. Skin, smooth, dull yellow, with an orange blush. Stalk, slender, inclining to one side. Calyx, set in a smooth, narrow basin. Flesh, yellow, firm, sweet, and rich. It bakes well, and is fit for use the whole winter, and often till April. [Down. Fr. Amer.] 108.
497. DARLINGTON PIPPIN.
A medium sized dessert apple, of an oblate shape, green color, and second-rate quality.—[H. S. C.] n. 199.
