Xe Plus Ultea. — A line early variety, derived 

 fi'om the Giant Xaples, having well-filled heads, 

 often nine inches in diameter. Highly recom- 

 mended by Wolfner and V^eisz of Vienna, but lit- 

 tle grown in this country. 



No>'PAEEiL. — In most American catalogues this is 

 given as synonymous with Half Early Paris. Buist 

 and Rawson catalogue it as a separate variety, and 

 Brill mentioned it in 1S72 as a distinct variety. 

 At the New York experiment station, in 1SS5, a 

 variety called Thorburn's Xonpareil matured among 

 the half- early sorts at the same time as Lenormand 

 Short- stem. J. M. Thorburn dz Co. write me 

 in 1891 that Xonpareil is a name which they gave 

 to the Half Early Paris when they first introduced 

 that variety to the trade in this country.
