That sounds like one of those cosmetic marketing cons to me.

It is always confusing to me why Americans think that fruit in their shampoo is such a great idea.

I wouldn't bother with any of Obama's wife's beauty secrets or fashion tips. She's not exactly Jackie O.

This apple is not on my priority list but it is certainly a remarkable apple.
When apple get's punctured, it can grow/heal over, apple in storage doesn't wrinkle. Hey...we could all use some rejuvenating agent in a
natural form...couldn't we? LOL.. I might get some scion...just to see if I can grow it here, probably not, this is a long season apple, similar to Granny Smith, but since it's a very old cutlivar from around 1750, it could be a hardy apple and I can extract the agent from the leaves,..well,
maybe not but I was reading that it was done.

Here is a link that might be useful: Could the extract from a rare Swiss apple REALLY get rid of your wrinkles? Read more: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-1231889/Could-extract-rare-Swiss-apple-REALLY-rid-wrinkles.html#ixzz16XQ0vf00

That's pretty funny. I love it when research lags so far behind the marketing and the researchers are the marketeers. Nice to know the U.S isn't alone with this kind of corruption of science.

The article's from the Daily Mail - that's all I need to know......

If you get one of those apples remove all the peeling and let it dry up, see if it's wrinkled then. ha ha ha D.L.

Luck had it that I could get some scion wood,...this was my very first apple in over 20 years of grafting to bear fruit after the grafting in the same season, most often they fruit but marble size apple will fall off. I know...supposed to knock it off to let the wood grow, but I didn't.

This one almost aborted but decided to stay on.
I can already tell,.. something remarkable about this apple!
