Today's striking apple, somewhere between medium and large, has a blush that ranges from deep to streaky over yellow. ¶ Classically shaped and lightly ribbed, Legace wears many small light lenticel dots in its scarlet coat. ¶ I'm not sure why, but the color of this apple in my photo is less vibrant and saturated than in person. That might be due to lighting or perhaps the existence of a bit of a bloom that has rubbed off my tasting sample. I am quite sure I have the right apple, however.
