PEACHES. 275; 



an English peach ; but it appears from an old catalogue 

 of the Chartreux Garden, that it was long since sent to 

 France under the name of La Belle Catherine, although 

 no trace of it is to be found in the great French works 

 on Pomology.

 in Hort. Trans. Vol. v. p. 549. 



Pavie Admirable. Ib. 553. 



Leaves crenate, with reniform glands. Flowers small, 

 pale. Fruit large, of a roundish. figure, swelling a little 

 more on one side of the suture than on the other. 

 Skin pale yellow next the wall; but of a pale red, 

 shaded with light scarlet or deep crimson, on the sunny 

 side. Flesh pale yellow, but red at the stone, to which 

 it closely adheres. Juice sugary, and well flavoured. 

 Stone roundish, and almost smooth. 



Ripe the end of September and beginning of October. 



The Pavie Admirable is now, for the first time, made 

 a synonyme of the Incomparable, the latter having been 

 established in Mr. Aiton's Epitome. The name of 

 Pavie Admirable is no where to be found, I believe, 

 previously to its insertion in my Plan of an Orchard, 

 published in 1796, whence it was copied into Mr. For- 

 syth's book, in 1802.
