On adjoining pages will be found a description of the Chehalis, apple, discovered and introduced by Mr. Lloyd Lonborg of Oakville, Washington. Lloyd Lonborg was a logger. Most of his life was spent in the Douglas fir and cedar forests of western Washington. But at heart he was a pomologist, for he had an almost passionate interest in fruits. His great desire was to find or develop an apple variety with superior flavor, one that hobbyists could grow without having to apply chemical sprays to protect the fruit and trees from plant diseases such as scab and mildew.
