mong those you will get a good crab twenty years from now. 
he Greenwood is a hardy tree, but the fruit is not of a good 
color; it ripens early, but is good for nothing in the market. 
It is a good thing to have when you have no others. One year 
I had more Greenwood crabs than I had on two or three thous- 
d trees of all other varieties put together. It is a good tast- 
crab. One man told me his boys would fill their pockets 
with Greenwood crabs when the Duchess were lying all around.
