 of by Dr. Lindley In the Gardeners' Chronicle, and also by every 

 one i hat has grown it. Ic is a most abundant bearer, and the 

 best m quality of any Potato jrrown, and keeps good up to May 

 or June. They are of jrond size, and have been grown on wart> 

 land near the banks of the Trent, and therefore will be a eood 

 chance for any other soil.

MELONS! MELONS! MELONS! 



The finest flavoured in the world is the Bkomhah Halt, 



Green Flesh. ' 



^DWARD TILEY respectfully informs the Nobility 



— * Gentry, and Melon Growers in general that he has still i 



stock of good old Seed of this splendid Melon saved in 184$ 

 and which has given universal satisfaction to ail purchaser! d 

 last season. To pr »ve its superiority of flavour over alloir 

 Melons, the following opinion has been given. It was for. 

 warded to the Editor of the Gardeners* Chronicle, Jaly 22, 184 

 for nis judgment, and he was of opinion that the Bromham Hill 

 Melon was the finest flavoured he had ever tasted. It wu 

 exhibited at the Chiswick Exhibition, July 11, 1849, where it 

 was awarded by the judges the Silver Knightian Medal for id 

 luxuriant flavour. Again it was forwarded to Dr. Lindley, 

 August 11, 1849:— "We have received your Bromham Hal 

 Melon ; it was much over-ripe, nevertheless it was by far tht 

 best flavoured Melon we ever tasted." It was exhibited at the 

 Horticultural Society's Rooms, Regent-street, Sep r em\>w 4. 

 1849, and pronounced by the judges to be the best flavoured 

 Melon they ever tasted, and was awarded the Banksian Medtl 

 On the 2u th July, 1850, again exhibited at Chiswick, and 

 obtained first and second prizes for its superior flavour. Ii 

 was grown last season at the Horticultural Society's Garden^ 

 London, by Mr. Thompson, superintendent to the fruit depart* 

 raent, who*e opinion was in accordance with the others. Tfal 

 fruit is very handsome, round shaped, hollow crown, beaai 

 fully netted, thin skin, and flesh very firm ; a free setter an. 

 abundant bearer, weight from 3 to 4£ lbs. It may be aa easily 

 grown by an amateur in a frame as the common Vegetable Kar- 

 row ; also retains its fine flavour for a considerable time after 

 being cut. Sold in packets at the reduced price of lr. 6d.;tto 



iog other fine varieties can be highly recommended,
