Catalogue of Varieties. 105 



MONITOR (Fuller). Large, roundish conical, bright scarlet; 

 flesh solid, firm, too acid with me to be agreeable ; high fla- 

 vored. Vigorous, and moderately productive. Fig. in Hort. 

 XVII. 418. 



MONROE SCARLET (Ellwanger and Barry). Medium to large, 

 roundish, light scarlet, of good flavor. Hardy, and very pro- 

 ductive; has succeeded well in France. Pistillate. A cross of 

 Hovey's and the Duke of Kent. Fig. in Hort. IX. 221. 



MONSTROUS HAUTBOIS. A comparatively new variety. Said to 

 be large and fine. Two kinds have been sold under this name; 

 one of them, according to Fuller, not a Hautbois at all. 



MONSTRUEUSE DE ROBINE (Robine). (?) Very large, irregular, 

 scarlet red ; seeds sunken ; flesh rosy, hollow, brisk flavored, 

 not sweet or juicy. Hardy and vigorous. Unproductive, and 

 a poor setter. Possibly a Chili. 



MONTROSE (Prince). 



MORGAN SEEDLING (Morgan). Known to me only as a variety 

 which took a prize as the best market variety at a fruit growers' 

 meeting, held at Rochester, N. Y., in 1866. 



MORRISANIA SCARLET. Fruit in clusters, round, small, shining 

 dark red ; flesh whitish, soft, poor. -A good bearer and early.
