FRUIT GARDEN' DISPLAYED. 24.I 



The neftarines are fine firm-fieihed, rich- 

 flavoured fruit, deferving culture in the dif- 

 ferent varieties, where there is proper extent 

 of walling, as the trees muft always be trained 

 againft walls, for the blollom and, young fruit 

 advancing early in the Spring, like the peaches^ 

 when cold weather prevails, will not fuc- 

 ceed without the fhelter of warm walls, as 

 alfo to ripen the fruit in good perfection in 

 Autumn.; and for which the trees are trained 

 principally in common dwarf wall trees, 

 branching out low, to furnifh the wall regu-. 

 larly from the bottom upwards, as obferved 

 of the peaches ; and occafionally in half and 

 tall llandard wall trees, to plant between the 

 others, to cover the upper parts of high walls, 

 till the dwarf trees, the continuing refidents, 

 advance in proper growth. 



The trees bear in the f:ime order as peaches, 

 upon the young fhoots of a year old ; and a« 

 the fame Oioots feldom bear much after the 

 firfl: year, except on fome cafual fraall fpurs, 

 a full fupply of each year's fhoots, produced 

 In Summer, muft be retained for fuccefiional 

 bearers the year following, and a proportion- 

 able part of the former bearers and naked*old 

 wood cut out, to make room for the young 

 fupply. 



They are propagated by budding them upon 

 plum flocks, as mentioned for peaches, and 

 the young trees managed exa(5tly in the fame 

 manner, to train them in the lequifite order 

 for vvalli.
