Christiana and Mary. 



Two varieties raised by B. B. Kirtland, Greenbush, N. Y., and 

 noted in the Horticulturist as resembling, in tree and fruit, the

 A promising late variety. Fruit above medium size, roundish ; 

 suture shallow, with a line. Colour amber, mostly shaded and 

 mottled with bright red. Flesh juicy and sprightly sub-acid.

 base, and generally growing in 

 pairs. Stalk stout, short. Skin 

 shining, of a bright lively red.
