Wiki Draft

Black Ben Davis is mentioned in A Study of Northwestern Apples as part of a discussion of seedlings from Ben Davis. The source groups it with Gano as an improved seedling form, in contrast to many close Ben Davis seedlings that were not considered worth formal introduction [S1].

The available text is thin and partly fragmentary, so no fruit traits, origin date, parentage beyond its association with Ben Davis seedlings, or hardiness claims are established here [S1].
