Your welcome Claude,
Here goes... no, I do not agree. There's that personal opinnion again! Maybe
the growing conditions make the difference.
While I don't recall that particular comment by Beach, I will say that
Duchess ripens here close to Transparent. The Peach ripens close to
Dudley about a month later. When the Peach apples are starting to come in,
Duchess has gone by.
That's as far as I disagree. The Peach is a favorite of mine, but it is
really hard to beat a Duchess in season - fresh or cooked. They are
great for sauce, many think better than Transparent. Pies are just a point or
so under Gravenstien.
I think they are aptly named, the Peach is a peach but when all is said and
done, the Duchess is in a class by itself.
