Narrative

A local Kings Valley man exhibited a very large fruit at a Home Orchard Society fruit show in October 1992 that won the “large apple contest”. He had picked the fruit in the King’s Valley area, but would not reveal the location of the tree. I was told by a mutual friend where the tree was located and collected scions in April 1993. The tree that I propagated does indeed produce very large fruit. An elderly member of Home Orchard Society at the 1992 fruit show suspected this was the old German cultivar ‘Bietigheimer’ and it does seem to match the description. Scions collected from an old orchard tree, probably >100 years old near the intersection of Hwy 223 (Kings Valley Hwy) and Hoskins Road near Kings Valley, Oregon. -- Joseph Postman

Comment:

fide Telopea 9:427. 2001, when published this was an illegitimate, superfluous name (Shenzhen ICN Art. 52) for Malus communis Desf. (1798), i.e. based on the same type (that of Pyrus malus L.)
conserved (nom. cons.) against the heterotypic synonyms (Shenzhen ICN Art. 14.4 & App. IV) M. communis, M. pumila, and five other names
