Stirling Castle. A perfect kitchen Apple, large in size, 

 cropping so freely as to limit its growth. Weeping. 

 Colour of fruit, greenish yellow. 



Lord Derby. Growth, upright. A regular bearer, giving 

 fine, large, golden fruits. They often require thinning 

 freely. 



Newton Wonder. A fine, late fruit which is preferable 

 to Bramley's Seedling for small gardens, as it comes into 

 bearing in a young state, and has cooking qualities equal to 

 Dumelow's Seedling. 



All the varieties named above succeed as standard 

 trees where there is space for development, but they also 

 make excellent espaliers or cordons.

 tember to October.)
