Scaly Bark-New

WM10

This truly historic New England variety was listed in the 1885 Retail Catalogue of the James J.H. Gregory Seed Company of Marblehead, Massachussetts. He wrote: “Skin somewhat rough, as the name denotes...Remains longer than usual in eating order after gathering.” The mottled, light and medium green rind does indeed appear very much like tree bark, and is very unique looking. The flesh is bright red, sweet and crisp. We are proud to bring this worthy variety back to its original home.
