68 The Gardener's New Director. 



No. 7. Ozhn Pippin is pretty large, roundifh, and flat 

 at each end. It is of a light yellow colour ; the flefh is 

 firm, with a fweet and pleafant juice. The tree is ge- 

 nerally vigorous, and its growth regular : it alfo bears 

 well. 



No. 8. Remhourge (pomus pragra?iiiis, precox, tenerrima, 

 TouRN. La Rambcur, Quint, is a very large French 

 Apple, ftriped with red on the one fide, but green on 

 the other. The fubflance of this fruit is free, and the 

 tafte agreeable. The tree does beft as a ftandard. 



No. 9. and 10. Autumn Cahilles (mcih.is frudlu magnoy 

 intense rubetite, viola odore, To urn. Les Cahilles d''Au- 

 tomne, Quint.) Thefe Apples are large and long, turn- 

 ing lefs towards the eye; in Ihape they exadly refembie 

 each other, but one of them is of a red colour all 

 over, and the other of a white. The firft has its fub- 

 flance of a red colour, even to the core. The flefh of 

 both is breaking, and of a pleafant tafte, and charming 

 flavour. Mr. Switzer has afferted, that the white is the 

 befl:. The trees of both kinds are rather delicate in 

 Scotland, yet they bear tolerably. 



No. II. Grey Leadington is of a middling fize, a long- 

 ilh fhape, that turns fmaller towards the eye. The co- 

 lour of the true kind is dark green or grey : they are 

 often freckled ; the flefh is firm, melting, juicy, fweet, 

 and agreeably perfumed : the fmell is delightful. The 

 pippins are placed in the center, in very large cells. 

 This Apple is truly good, fuperior to any other Apple, 

 if we except the Golden-pippin and Golden-rennet ; nor 

 is it excelled by either of thefe kinds. The tree is har- 

 dy, grows regularly, and bears tolerably well. It will 

 fucceed in every manner, whether you plant it as a flan- 

 dard or half-flandard, on a wall, as a dwarf or efpalier. 



No. I 2. CarparJy (Le Coiirpeudu, QuiNT.) is of a good 

 fize and fine fliape ; of a grey or dark red on one fide, but 

 a bright red on the other: the flefn is delicate, its juice 

 very fweet, and of an agreeable flavour. When it turns 

 wrinkled, it is good for nothing ; for it lofes its flavour 

 before it begins to be wrinkled. This name is given to a 

 fruit in Scotland, which is far inferior in goodnefs to the 

 French kind. The tree thrives and bears tolerably well. 



No.
