280 THE GJOOSEBERRY. 



Pale Red. 



Branches erect, slender ; fruit pale red, n:edium,oval, flavor very 

 good, very productive. We received this variety from England, in 

 1847, and have fruited it yearly since. It so closely resembles 

 Houghton's Seedling that we have somewhat doubted the latter being 

 distinct. We have grown it in good and in poor soil, with and with- 

 out cultivation, and have never had it mildew ; while for productive- 

 ness we have not its equal, a single branch often producing two 

 hundred fruit.
