I had Mio but unfortunately it died this past summer.  I also have Ingrid
Marie a Cox variety out of Denmark (my oldest daughter is named Ingrid
Marie).  Mio was not a very successful apple down here as the summer heat
turned soft very quickly.  Ingrid Marie is a very pretty apple.  It is a
September apple for us.
