You might like this article about "branded apples", like the Pink Lady. That's a branded trademark, not a variety. (I like them too.) http://www.economist.com/

- viewer5 12y agoI read the article, and I don't see where it says that Pink Lady isn't a variety. It mentions the marketing that Pink Lady is sold under, but I don't see where it contradicts the assumption that Pink Lady is a variety of apple. Just marketed and subjected to a certain quality standard.
- cschmidt 12y agoAccording to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cripps_Pink http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cripps_Pink the Pink Lady is of the Cripps Pink variety. I suppose a lawyer would say a "Pink Lady brand Cripps Pink apple" :-)
- viewer5 12y agoAh, I understand now. I read your original comment as "Pink Lady is a bunch of different kinds of apples, all under one label".
- nl 12y agoYeah, and Jazz is a trademarked name too. I don't really see a reason I should care.
