Plumb Cider is an apple cultivar associated with J. C. Plumb of Milton, Wisconsin. Plumb reported in 1874 that his father had brought it from Ohio to Wisconsin in 1844, and that the original tree in Jefferson County was still standing and notably fruitful [S1].
The tree was described as vigorous, round headed, an early bearer, and very productive in alternate years. The fruit had greenish white flesh and was marked as late winter season; the source also notes extremely marginal stamens in the calyx tube [S1].
In the same study, Plumb Cider was listed for trial in District 6 and again in District 7 [S1].
