Wiki Draft

American Codling is described in A Study of Northwestern Apples from specimens supplied by William Oxford of Freeburg, Minnesota. The fruit was large, oblate to roundish oblate, with green skin faintly blushed bronze and many distinct white dots [S1].

The flesh was reported as juicy, fine grained, pleasant subacid, and good in quality. The source marked it as excellent for culinary use, with December given as its season or keeping period [S1].

The entry also records detailed apple morphology, including a regular deep cavity, short to medium stem, wide shallow basin, closed calyx, closed core, obovate cells, conical tube, median stamens, and about eight very plump seeds [S1]. A later list-style entry notes that flesh color was not given [S1].
