Perkins No. 32 is a striped winter apple from the Perkins numbered series. F. I. Perkins of Red Wing, Minnesota, raised it from seed of Malinda. The pollen parent is not stated. It was first exhibited at the Minnesota State Fair in September 1902, when about 200 Malinda seedlings were beginning to bear. [S1]
The fruit is above medium size, regular, and conical. The skin is green with red stripes and many white dots. The flesh is fine grained, pleasantly subacid, and rated good. [S1]
Pomological notes describe a regular, slightly russeted cavity, a medium stout stem, a narrow, slightly ribbed basin, and a closed calyx. The core is wide open, with roomy elliptical cells. A later classification table also lists Perkins No. 32 among striped apples and repeats the elliptical, roomy cell character. [S1]
Its season is listed only as winter. The source gives no precise harvest window, storage duration, tree habit, productivity, or disease observations. [S1]
The source places Perkins No. 32 in a northwestern apple evaluation and connects it to Red Wing, Minnesota. It gives no explicit hardiness zone or winter survival statement. Its cold climate relevance therefore rests on its Minnesota origin, Malinda seedling background, and inclusion in a South Dakota bulletin on northwestern apples, not on a direct zone claim. [S1]
Perkins No. 32 is grouped with Perkins Nos. 46 and 78, all described as Malinda seedlings raised by F. I. Perkins. A page heading refers to Peffer's Duchess x Rall's Genet, but the cultivar entry states only that Perkins No. 32 came from seed of Malinda. That heading should not be read as a complete direct parentage statement for this selection. [S1]
