THE APPLE. 



Ill 



White Winter Pearmcrin. 



WILLIAM'S FAVOURITE. Man. Ken. 

 William's Early. William's Red. 



A largo and handsome dessert apple, worthy of a place in 

 every garden. It originated at Roxbury, near Boston, beara 

 abundantly, and ripens from the last of July to the first of 

 September. An excellent market variety. 



Fruit of medium size, oblong, and a little one-sided. Stalk 

 an inch long, slender, slightly sunk. Calyx closed, in a narrow 

 angular basin. Skin very smooth, of a light red ground, but 

 nearly covered with a fine dark red. Flesh yellowish-white, and 

 of a very mild and agreeable flavour. Requires a strong rich soil 



WINTER PIPPIN OF GENEVA. 



An apple bearing the above local name, was found growing in 

 the garden of Mrs. Crittendon, and is deserving of notice. The 

 appearance of the tree and fruit is strikingly like that of the 

 Fall pippin, but is a very late keeper, continuing in perfection 

 until May. 



Fruit large, oblate, slightly angular. Skin fine yellow with a 

 crimson cheek, sparsely covered with grey dots. Stalk short 

 and small, inserted in a narrow cavity. Calyx open, segments 

 long, basin open. Flesh yellow, tender, juicy, vinous, excel- 

 lent. June to May.
