Was the Granny Smith Apple the first green skinned apple widely propagated? Here's one vote to reopen. Apples normally turn red when they're ripe - at some point, humans created or found a variety that stayed green and started propagating it. That's an historical event, and asking when it happened strikes me as a perfectly good question for this site. I suppose 'widely propagated' is kind of vague - maybe Xiao could specify the country or countries that interest him. |

How did people react to Cavendish bananas when they first replaced the Gros Michel strain? Quite possibly, but I don't really want to buy the books just to look at the bibliography. And there may be references to this in other odd places - a novel, letter, or magazine article of the time could mention it in passing without being specifically about bananas. I'm hoping someone can point me directly to what I'm looking for. |
