King Apple

Tree of most vigorous growth, with stoat limbs; bark greenish-brown, more colored in the young shoots. Leaves thick, large round-oblong, slightly serrated and downy beneath.

Core large, seeds middle sized, differing in Form and size, some abortive, in spacious capsules. Skin smooth, glossy dark-red with stripe of a darker red when about ripe, and covered with fine marblings of the same hue. Flesh firm, replete with juice; of a brisk, sprightly, vinous subacid, with sufficient sugar and flavor, making it a very refreshing fruit. Keeps well, ripens slowly, and lasts as far as April. Indeed, one of oar most valuable winter apples, The fruit has much of the Esopus Spitzenburg character.

Măr Domnesc


Explanation:
Desi am gasit tradus ca "king apple", eu as lasa forma origiala, avand in vedere ca este un soi autohton. Nici "Grasa de Cotnari" nu s-ar traduce... nu?
The variety „Maru l Domnesc” is a Romanian specie , very old and spread also in Europe. It is a very resistant tree, flowering later, very productive, long -lived.
The fruits are big, spherical-bottomed and colored in yellow with red alternatives stripes and yellow points.
The pulp is solid, very sensitive to transport, with acid flavor and easy „salted”. This is classified in quality in-group B.

neutral  Sandra & Kenneth Grossman: Daca e un soi vechi raspandit in Europa cu siguranta ca are si un nume englezesc. Eu nu as lasa Marul Domnesc, ci as cauta numele latin si de acolo mai departe. BTW, "easy salted"?? :) Grasa de Cotnari e un vin autohton, nu raspandit undeva.
