Brown's Seedling is a little-known English cooking apple, raised in the latter half of the 19th century by Messrs. Brown, nurserymen of Stamford in the county of Lincolnshire.
The Victorian pomologist Robert Hogg rated as "excellent for culinary purposes". It cooks to a pleasant but mild-flavoured puree.
The identification paintings in the USDA Pomological Watercolor Collection span the years 1886 to 1942.
