I have now read that their season is short, so if we blink we might miss them. After breakfast I was able to find some from an local grocer to bring a few home to enjoy. Not only are they beautiful, they have a distinctively delightful taste.dragonflyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09724624650573677345noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13006325.post-46889932901377212482009-08-19T06:24:04.023-07:002009-08-19T06:24:04.023-07:00Saw post from Europe...red/pink flesh apples origi...Saw post from Europe...red/pink flesh apples originated from Europe and were brought to US in 1831.

I think Surprise would've been a good name for these too! I did in fact shriek in surprise. <br /><br />As to the exterior, I think it's lovely. I thought it was named for That. It's a sortof pearlescent pink and yellow, but it turns out that's due to the hot pink flesh showing through the pale yellow green skin. pretty damned cool!Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15102729066458077952noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13006325.post-5902311730706435022008-11-02T09:55:00.000-08:002008-11-02T09:55:00.000-08:00Mrs. Lear, where do you live?
