I have been eating Lodi and then Sunrise. Now Gingergold and Zestar! In about a week Sansa and Akane. We are a week late this year. <br />GregerAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8647355176632077968.post-37930375343628358622009-08-04T22:02:12.867-04:002009-08-04T22:02:12.867-04:00That is flattering, ascorbic, but I think you can ...That is flattering, ascorbic, but I think you can do better than to rely on my experience, rooted as it is here in New England (and piecemeal. Though I do think I've got July nailed down, Sansa and Akane probably not grown here.)<br /><br />Greger, where do you live? West coast? What are those apples like?<br /><br />Last year I sampled every variety I could find here in August, but could have missed a few. Even so there is a pleasing range of tastes this month--compare Lodi with Red Gravenstein or Gingergold.<br /><br />I was at Lexington's farmers market today. Still just Jersey Mac and Vista Bella for sale 'round here.Adamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11318661139598557285noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8647355176632077968.post-285438141415052522009-08-04T03:18:05.865-04:002009-08-04T03:18:05.865-04:00I tasted the first apple from the tree on my allot...I tasted the first apple from the tree on my allotment last week. Could possibly do with another week or so, but was still delicious. No idea what variety it is though. I'll have to check through your catalog.ascorbichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14935475405615581330noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8647355176632077968.post-35656753342588693212009-08-03T18:57:08.304-04:002009-08-03T18:57:08.304-04:00Don't forget Sansa.

At least Akane comes off before Gala.Gregerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16581028262580882546noreply@blogger.com
