Variety. 

 Sturmer Pippin. 



Duke of 



Devonshire. 



Remarks. 



free bearer, making a good orchard 

 tree. January to April. 



Undoubtedly one of the best late 

 varieties we have. It is of 

 moderate size, and rich flavour, 

 and should be allowed to hang 

 late on the trees. Either as a 

 pyramid or an orchard standard 

 it is valuable. 



Also a late apple of good quality, 

 and crisp flavour. A good bearer, 

 both in the garden and orchard. 

 In season from February to May. 



Duchess of 

 Oldenburg. 



Lord Grosvenor. 



Frogmore Prolific. 



Stirling Castle.

A fairly large fruit, with crisp and 

 juicy flesh; one of the best early 

 apples, succeeding almost anywhere 

 either as a pyramid or standard. 

 September. 



A large yellowish-coloured fruit ; a 

 valuable early apple, a good grower, 

 and bearing well as an orchard 

 standard, or preferably as a 

 pyramid. 



The flesh of this large apple is white, 

 tender and juicy. It makes a 

 splendid pyramid, and is an ex- 

 cellent bearer. September and 

 October. 



This is a good-sized apple, and 

 the tree bears remarkably well, 

 either as a bush or a pyramid.
