32G Report op the Horticulturist of the 



Puyallup. — Received for testing from the introducer J. M. 

 Ogle, Puyallup, Washington, in 1888. Mr. Ogle gives the follow- 

 ing account of its origin: "Mr. W. M. Lee and his wife of Tacoma, 

 Wash., dug the parent bush in 1881 at an old Indian camp on the 

 bank of the Puyallup river one mile below the town of Puyallup." 

 It was introduced in 1887. 



In the report of the United States Pomologist for 1891, p. 395, 

 it is stated that this variety is apparently identical with Triumph, 

 but this is an error. While the two varieties do resemble each 

 other quite closely in fruit, the Puyallup begins to blossom a 

 little earlier than the Triumph and the bush is not so strong a 

 grower as is the Triumph. The fruit of Puyallup is not so much 

 inclined to be round as is that of Triumph; it is large, pale green, 

 smooth, sweet, very good quality. See figure 64, plate XX. Its 

 average yield per bush for the past four years has been 5.03 

 pounds while the average for Triumph during the same period 

 has been 6.24 pounds per bush. 



Queen Anne. — Medium sized fruit, oblong, smooth, green tinged with 

 yellow, sub-acid, good. Bush a moderate grower. It has mildewed but 

 very slightly here. 



Queen of Trumps. — Fruit large, pale green, smooth, sweet, very good 

 quality, suitable for exhibitions. Bush is a strong grower and has mil- 

 dewed but slightly here. 



Queen of the Whites.— Fruit medium size, nearly round, 

 smooth, pale yellowish-green, sweet, good. Bush a strong grower. 

 It has shown scarcely a trace of mildew here. 



Queen Victoria. — Fruit medium size, nearly round, green, smooth, sub- 

 acid, not very good quality. See figure 52, plate XVIII. Season early. 

 Bush not a strong grower. It has mildewed but very slightly here. 



Red Champagne.— Fruit small to medium, nearly round, 

 slightly hairy, dark red, sweet, good. The bush is a strong 

 grower and has shown but a trace of mildew here. 



Red Jacket (English). — This English variety is not identical 

 with an American variety which has been introduced under the 

 name " Red Jacket " by George S. Josselyn, Fredonia, N. Y. See 

 page 315. 



Fruit large to very large, often narrowed towards the stem, 

 much larger than the fruit of the American Red Jacket which in
