Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Gardener's Monthly and Horticulturist, Vol. 19: Devoted to Horticulture, Arboriculture and Rural Affairs
The description of the Blenheim Pippin given in Downing's Fruits and Fruit Trees was taken from some spurious source. The true sort is partially described as the Blooming Orange in the large edition of 1869. Mr. Downing has since identified this as the true Blenheim.
