WALL FRUIT TREES. 



filbert, are almost always grown as standards ; but the crops of the 

 two former are very precarious north of York, and but rarely ripened 

 in Scotland. All kinds of nuts are best grown outside the garden, 

 as they tempt the squirrels and other vermin, who not only devour the 

 nuts but feast upon other fruits as well. The only suggestions that 

 can be given for selecting the trees which require a wall in any given 

 situation are, to observe what has been done in gardens in the same 

 locality or in similar localities. The lists given consist of varieties which 

 have all been proved to be of first-rate excellence, and have been 

 extensively cultivated for many years in most of the best gardens in 

 England, Scotland and Ireland. In choosing from these lists for a 

 garden in the north of Scotland, the grapes and the figs must be 

 rejected altogether for the open walls, because they would not ripen 

 there ; while for a garden in the south of England the apples and pears 

 should be rejected, because there the fruits would ripen sufficiently 

 well in the open garden, on espaliers, dwarfs, or standards. We shall 

 here give only the names of the kinds selected ; other particulars will 

 be found in Dr. Hogg's Fruit Manual.
