Title: The 'Smokehouse' Apple
Author: T.E. Elkner
Abstract:
Few of the many thousands of seedling
apple cultivars that once existed in the U.S.
survive today.
Many of these cultivars did
not have high quality fruit or were not good
for storage and shipping.
Others were only
well adapted to the region where they were
first found.
Over time, better cultivars
replaced them.
However, some cultivars of
apple were so well liked within their region
that they can still be found there today.
One
such apple is 'Smokehouse' which is still
grown in commercial orchards in southeast
Pennsylvania.
