Breeding timeline

Apples plotted along their year of introduction, 1600 → 2030. Three era bands — Heritage (pre-1900), American Club (1900–1990), Modern Trade (1990+) — show how an orchard's collection skews. Arcs connect parent → child.

Mock prototype. Origin years come from a hand-curated table covering cocco-orchard's 21 cultivars + their immediate ancestors. Live DB year fields are sparse for heritage cultivars; this mock fills the gaps.
