Hello All,

While at the genebank I had another Howgate Wonder.  That spurred this  
research...

===
Howgate Wonder
Malus domestica Howgate Wonder

First bred on the Isle of Wight in 1929 and named after Howgate Lane in
 Bembridge, this monster apple – a cross between a cooker and an eating
 apple - is a world-beater. Weighing in at 3lb 11oz, with a
circumference of 21¼ inches, the Howgate Wonder entered the Guinness
Book of Records in 1997 as the biggest apple ever grown.

It is not a bad tasting apple.

Later,
Tom
