SC - Period apples info

[Mark.S Harris]

Some recent messages here have discussed period apples. This doesn’t
mention pippins, but this list is from a message from Cariadoc back
in 1993. It is in the fruits-msg file in my Florilegium.

Not only are apples period, some period varieties are still grown. In
particular, Rameau d'ete, aka Summer Rambo, is often available in the
Pennsic area about the time of Pennsic. The following list of period or
near period fruit varieties is from an article in _The Miscellany_ (also
T.I.).
