Abstract

One of the oldest known American apples, first mentioned in 1805 and long thot **to have been lost to cultivation, the true 'Vandevere', has now, it is believed, been rediscovered in central Indiana. Not the 'Vandevere' of New York, or 'Newtown Spitzenberg', but the true 'Vandevere' merits Downing's praise - "When in perfection, one of the most beautiful and finest apples" - and its virtual disappearance seems undeserved.
