LIST OF PEARS. 75 



11. Spanish Bonchretien ; this is a good win- 

 ter pear, and rather generally admired ; it grows 

 large against a wall, and will keep till January, 



12. Brown Beurre ; this is one of the best late 

 autumn pears we have ; they do best against a 

 wall, where they will grow large, of a brown 

 colour, and rather tinged with red ; it is a fine 

 juicy melter ; and is in perfection through No- 

 vember. 



13. Winter Bonchretien ; this is highly es- 

 teemed for its long keeping ; it is very large, full 

 of rich juice, and will keep till June. 



14. Chaumontelle ; this is a fine rich juicy 

 pear ; is a great bearer either as a dwarf or 

 standard, and will come into eating in December. 



15. Poire D'Auch ; this is a handsome green 

 pear of excellent flavour ; is a good bearer, and 

 I may add, there are but few winter pears 

 which equal it; it is fine from December to 

 the end of March : it is best suited for the 

 wall. 



16. Citron D'Carlmes ; this is rather a small 

 pear of a greenish colour, it is a great bearer, 

 and is ripe in July. 1
