APRICOTS. 



Par. 86. Various have been the opinions re- 

 specting the stocks generally used for budding 

 apricots, as they will grow on the muscle, the 

 Brussels, and the common plum stock ; but it is 

 a general opinion (and not without foundation) 

 that those budded on the Brussels stock are more 

 liable to decay. 



Having tried the whole of the above stocks 

 for years past, I find none so well suited for 

 Apricots as the common plum stock, usually 

 called commoners, except the Royal Orange, 

 which does best on the muscle; there may be 

 many who will not agree with my recommending 

 the common plum before the muscle, for the 

 Moor Park, but I give it the decided preference.
