[Ipg-smz] How do you like these apples?

[Daniel Dern]

Earlier this week, I saw -- and bought -- a bag of Rave apples,
whose labelling says "parented by Honeycrisk and MonArk apples"

https://www.stemilt.com/fruits/apples/rave-apples/ says "... the brand name of 
MN55 cultivar apples, which were the natural result of crossing the beloved 
Honeycrisp and MonArk, a variety from Arkansas."

So far, they're yummy.

(But) I am still waiting for a Cosmic Crisp.

(Happily) https://thecosmiccrisp.com/ says "will be harvested by growers 
throughout Washington for retail delivery in December 2019."

(so I don't have to get my bro-in-law who lives out there to finagle one from a 
local-to-him orchard and ship it to me...)
