Grandfather sold the russets and the codlings from his orchard, and those he didn't sell he stored in his pristine white-washed cellar. |

Some others I remember are russets, Jonathans, rambos, snow and northern spy. |
|
We'd bring our apples in burlap sacks, whatever we had, Macs, Baldwins, Spies, some Russets if we were lucky, some wild apples for pungency from the woods and hedgerows. |
|
Some of the readily available ones are Granny Smiths, Russets, Laxtons and Bramleys Seedling. |
|
Now we grow Newtown Pippins, Baldwins, Golden Russets, and Jonathans, all derived from the small, bitter, wild apples that originated in Kazakhstan. |
