 noir a Feuilles de Pecher, Fr. (N. Du Ham., 5. p. 172. t. 52. f. 1. ; 

 and ouv Jig. 434.) Leaves ovate and short, or lanceolate, with small 

 lobes. Flesh of the fruit red, variegated with pale yellow. In the 

 Nouveau Du Hamel, it is stated to be a very slight variety, which 

 can only be continued by budding. 



The rough-fruited apricot merits cultivation for its flowers, which are gene- 

 rally white, but which, in this country, from the earliness of their appearance, 

 are not often succeeded by fruit, unless the tree is planted against a wall, where 

 it can be protected by netting from the spring frosts.
