2. Tight-tkinneA varieties. 



The Mosambi ia the only variety commonly grown in 

 gardens on a lar^e scale. The fruit has faint vertical ridges, and 

 a fl it ring on the top. The 8kia is closely attached to the pulp, 

 and not easily separable from it. Its flavonr is less piquant than 

 that of the Santra, aud the colour of the pulp is much lighter. 

 The tree is largo, with, spreading branches and dark green foliage. 

 There are two sub-varieties of the ^losnmbi. The fruit of one ia 

 thin-skinned ( Kagdi) and tint of the other is thick-skinned 

 (Godhadi). The former is the better, but both types are commonly 

 cultivated in gardens. 



The Navel Orange, the Malta Blood Orange, and the Jamaica 

 Orange are sometimes grovrn in gardens, but these types have not 

 yet found their way into the practice of thie ordinary cultivators.
