Howdy,
Today I drove to Oak Glen, CA where there are several apple orchards that
sell directly to the public. Most varieties aren't that rare, but I saw one
I'd never heard of called 'Parkdale Beauty'. It was a little soft with
floral notes to its sweet taste. A complex apple for those who like apples
with no hint of tart. Does anyone know where I can read more about this
apple's history? I saw one site that had a picture of one but no text.
