Abstract

In 1919 B. D. Van Buren called the attention of the New York State Fruit Testing Association to a highly colored bud sport of Duchess which Was first observed by his brother in 1914, The tree on which the sporting limb was found was located in an orchard which had been planted in 1904 at Stockport, New York by their father, J. P. Van Buren. The trees had been purchased for Duchess and the Van Burens believed them to be such, as they all produced striped apples of Duchess type except the sporting limb which produced an apple distinct from Duchess in being largely covered with a solid red blush.
