My partner Fred's mom has a book from the mid 1800's that describes over 3000 apple varieties!! Lots of different fruits that ripen different times and have various qualities- fascinating. Apparently, here in Maine we have many of them growing "wild" on old farmsteads and someone is documenting them. Maine was known for its apples in the 19th century |
