I am inclined to suspect that the August 1980 Hortscience article
contains a misprint. I used to have a Minnesota leaflet on Sweet
Sixteen and Keepsake, and my (admitttedly not totally reliable)
memory says that both came from crosses of MN 447 X Northern Spy.
Misprints do happen in the best regulated enterprises, as we know
from reading the Pomona.
