Medium, a very handsome conical fruit from America, 

 of rich red colour, with a pleasant spicy flavour, and 

 soft flesh. A.M., R.H.S. Standards, 2/6. See Illus- 

 tration, page 12. 



Medium ; a grand new dessert and market apple. The 

 Journal of Horticulture, Nov. 28th, 1895, says — 

 " Winter Quarrenden Apple ; the fruits almost exactly 

 resemble fine specimens of the Devonshire Quarren- 

 den, they are quite fresh and firm, highly coloured, 

 and the flesh tender, juicy, and pleasantly flavoured, 

 Photographs of the tree, exhibited "at a previous 

 meeting, showed a most bountiful crop of fruit. A 

 promising apple for market purposes." Not only is 

 this one of the "coming " apples for market work, it 

 is equally valuable for the garden of the Amateur ; 

 its grand colour and appearance would make it worth 

 growing, even if it had not the extra merit of good 

 quality. Maidens 3/6 and 5/0 each. 



Medium, handsome, one of the best culinary apples ; 

 keeping well, and worthy of the dessert. An excellent 

 baker, and one of the best market sorts for a cold soil. 

 Should be left on the tree as late as possible to colour. 



Medium ; a little known, but excellent fruit, of first class 

 flavour, bearing freely. Dwarfs, 2/6 and 3/6. 



Medium, richly- coloured, great and early bearer; a 

 leading variety for market ; very handsome and fine 

 as a garden tree ; growth upright ; most profitable on 

 Paradise. F.O., R.H.S. 



Small ; a fine old Orchard fruit ; worthy of culture in the 

 garden. 



Small, but prolific. The Summer Golden Pippin of Kent 

 growers ; valuable for market. 



The * refers to Apples suitable for Profitable Market Orchards.

Note. — Fruit can be kept much later in a properly constructed " Fruit Room." Among the Collections 

 which were exhibited at the R.H S. in February, 1884 and 1885 (and for which we were awarded Silver 

 Medals) there were many September Apples in good condition. Our own Fruit House is merely a match- 

 boarded shed thatched thickly, and it answers the purpose admirably, and has been much commended by 

 visitors, and, by request, is described and figured in R.H.S. transactions. This admirable place for keeping 

 fruit enabled us to set up 40 dishes of late Apples at the Temple Show, May 23rd, 1894, for which we were 

 awarded a Gold (gilt) Medal, and Silver Cups, 1895-6-7; at the latter show 80 kinds were set up in 

 remarkable condition, and they were specially admired by H.R.H, The Prince of W a l es * n< l Ms family.
