Deane, evidently, is one of those apples that can grow quite large. My biggest sample is 12 inches around. ¶ These are oblate and round with some ribbing. My photograph shows a lopsided lump on this one. They have a streaky red blush over a pale spring green. ¶ In addition to stripes, there are some irregular spots of saturated red in the lightly blushed regions.
