WORTHY GENERAL CULTIVATION. 275 



always ripen well, but the fruit may be gathered, wrapped in paper 

 same as oranges, and laid in a cool room and kept until Christmas. 

 It often reproduces itself from the stone, and Bayne s New Heath 

 partakes of no new qualities over many other of its seedlings. The 

 trees are very hardy, often producing on our western soils when 

 all others fail. 



Flowers, small ; glands, reniform ; fruit, large, oblong, narrowing 

 to both ends, with a swollen point at apex ; suture, one side, distinct ; 

 skin, downy, cream colored white, a tinge of red in the sun ; flesh, 

 greenish white, adhering closely to the stone, juicy, rich, luscious 

 flavor. Season^ October. Clingstone. 



HYSLOP. 



Hyslop s Clingstone. 



American. This variety should take the place of Heath in all 

 northern localities, and, indeed, deserves a place in every garden, 

 however small. From not finding it noticed in any work since Ken- 

 rick s issue, we had supposed it probably a synonym, but have been 

 unable so to detect it. Trees are hardy, vigorous and productive ; 

 flowers, small ; glands, reniform ; fruit, large, oblong, roundish ; 

 skin, white, with a deep rich, red cheek ; flesh, very juicy, melting, 

 rich and luscious. Season, early in October. Clingstone. 



JAQUES. 



Jaquish, | Jaques Rareripe, 

 Jaques Rareripe. 



American. A very desirable market variety ; good flavor ; and 

 very certain bearer. 



Flowers, small ; glands, reniform ; fruit, large, roundish ; distinct 

 suture ; skin, downy, dull yellow, with red cheek ; flesh, yellow, red 

 at the stone, juicy, rich, slightly sub-acid. Season, middle of Sep 

 tember. Freestone. 



MORRIS RED. 



Morris Red Rareripe, | Red Rareripe, 

 Large Red Rareripe. 



American. Has been confounded with George the Fourth, and 

 also with GrosseMignon, from both of which it is distinct. The Large 

 Early York of N. Jersey most nearly resembles it, but is quite dif 

 ferent. It is universally esteemed. Trees, vigorous and productive ; 

 flowers, small; glands, globose; fruit, large, roundish; slightly 

 depressed at apex ; suture, well marked ; skin, greenish white, with 

 a lively red cheek ; flesh, greenish white, red at the stone, melting,
