View source for Nanny Ogg (championship variety)

It's small, full-bodied, somewhat red and round and shiny and fruity. It keeps well, but is prone to wrinkling. After winning several championships, and belonging to a variety which is ''extremely'' fecund, disgustingly robust and which breeds like nothing on earth, it is ''very'' likely that thousands of people across the Disc will soon be having a very big nibble on a [[Gytha Ogg]].

We are in fact talking about a championship-winning apple variey grown by [[Lancre]]'s peerless horticulturist, [[Percy Hopcroft]]. In gratitude for a cure perpetrated on him after he fell off a ladder and broke his leg, Percy named the new apple after his local witch, a fact she took great pride in. Unfortunately for Percy, she wasn't slow in boasting about it to [[Esmerelda Weatherwax]], who pointedly refused a consequent invitation to dine on roast pork and apple sauce. The unfortunate consequences may be read in [[Short Story:The Sea and Little Fishes|The Sea and Little Fishes]]. However, Percy, a man with the usual well-honed sense of self-preservation common in [[Lancre]] when dealing with [[Witches' magic|witches]], redeemed himself by asking permission to name ''another'' prize-winning variety the [[Esme Weatherwax (championship variety)|Esme Weatherwax]].
