[nafex] Re: Ashmead's K apple



Ashmeades Kernel survived 43 below here in N WI., but with some 
difficulty, I rate it a zone 3b apple. It may have difficulty 
ripening in short seasons but B Mckently's wife told me that it is 
little damaged by fall frosts, maintaining its texture even after 
falling to the ground and laying around in the cold, in the fall 
after the hard frosts. Haven't fruited mine in Minocqua yet, St Ed's 
Pippen is supposed to be the earliest ripening of the russets.
