Santa Rosa Quince 



This was Mr. Burbank's second important new quince, 

 and was grown as a seedling from Rae's Mammoth, crossed 

 with the Portugal quince. It is remarkable for its great size and pro- 

 ductiveness, for beauty of form, and for the tender flesh and 

 delicious flavor of its fruit, and the diminutive size of the 

 core. It was rechristened Child's Quince by the 

 introducer to whom it was sold.
