To Allen, who is tempted to plant an Esopus Spitzenberg for its name. Thanks for pointing this out. I tried speaking it, as you suggested, and it is quite satisfying. I have a similar sentiment about Victoria Limbertwig, which I tried to order from Big Horse Creek, but they had run out of scion wood. I envisioned myself saying (in a sort of understated way), "And this is Victoria Limbertwig." Lovely.
