Talk:Bramley apple

message: Why does Hampshire County Council think that the Bramley apple came from Bramley, Hampshire? http://www3.hants.gov.uk/localpages/north-east/tadley/bramley.htm Pt1234 11:56, 24 November 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: Probably to try to popularise the place regardless of whether it is true or not. They're wrong, though; the original 'Bramley's Seedling' tree is still alive and well in Southwell, Nottinghamshire . - MPF 15:02, 15 December 2005 (UTC)

message: I put in 2 known USA links for purchasing Bramley Apples in the USA.  The reason is that Bramley are not really found in America, it's an anomaly.  It has taken me literally years to find them in the USA, so please leave the links for people to find where to get them in the USA. Ruth E (talk) 07:38, 8 September 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I have a considerable amount of sympathy for you, but I've removed the section. I can't see how it can be justified in Wikipedia, which is an encyclopedia and not a guidebook. What I've done instead is to use one of the farms' listings as an inline citation for the fact that Bramleys are grown (in very small numbers) in the US.

message: Granted that apples from the "original" tree were called Bramley's for the first time after the events described in the origin section, nevertheless the seeds had to come from somewhere. There must have been apple trees of the same species around already. Is there any record of that? Madgenberyl (talk) 17:08, 21 December 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: Apples don't come true from seed, whatever the tree was that produced the seed that grew up to be the original Bramley Seedling it wasn't a Bramley itself.  All apple trees, whatever their variety, are the same species.MidlandLinda (talk) 13:38, 29 April 2012 (UTC)

message: Tricky to know which word to use.  As the page appears to be written in British English (spelling of flavour) I changed pollinizer to pollinator, and have been reverted.  Fair enough, apart from the patronising comment to read the link.  I did read the link, and as we are always told to go to the publised sources, I consulted several dictionaries, the main way to decide word meanings and usage.
Most British dictionaries do not include pollinizer as a recognised  word.  The OED does include  it, restricting its usage to N. America, and giving the meaning as being the same as pollinator, namely both a source of pollen and the vector for pollination.
So as I see it, either this page about an apple hardly  grown in N. America is put into US English and uses pollinizer, or it remains in British English and uses pollinator.  What is the consensus? MidlandLinda (talk) 20:24, 16 April 2017 (UTC)
replies: text: Of course, UK fruit tree nurseries talk of "good pollinators", "ideal pollinators", "best pollinators", etc. That word also has the advantage of being understood in the required sense on both sides of the Atlantic and further afield. William Avery (talk) 22:41, 16 April 2017 (UTC)
replies: text:  I've changed it to pollinator as discussed above. Samatarou (talk) 17:13, 12 August 2018 (UTC)
