STRAWBERRY. — Mr. R. Wkench exhibited a few fruit of 

 Myatt's Pineapple. The fruit were small and conical, of a 

 bright red colour, and with a strong pine flavour and aroma. 

 This is well known to be very difficult of cultivation, and hence 

 plants of it have become exceedingly scarce. Through the kind- 

 ness of Mr. Weench, who has presented plants to the Garden, it 

 is hoped that an opportunity will be obtained for bringing this 

 excellent variety again into cultivation.
