Hi Guys:
I pulled over for a 'pit stop' on a highway in Maine. My wife in the van
cars zipping past at 70 mph. I couldn't help noticing a bunch of apples
hanging from a tree about 50' from me.
I picked 3 of them and continued north. Once home I tried to identify
this fruit. It looks an awful lot like a small Baldwin BUT... the inside
is red and white and there is astringency to it.
Sounds like a cider apple. No scab no bugs. I'm attaching some photos.
