Very large and handsome, pale yellow, with bright 

 crimson ; the grandest fruit at the first Chiswick 

 Congress. Of diffuse growth on Paradise ; requires 

 roots well pruned to induce fertility in a young state. 

 Its good qualities and excellent flavour recommend it 

 for general culture and exhibition. As a Standard it 

 takes some years before it comes to profit. Worthy of 

 a West wall, and is then superb. F.C., R.H.S. 



Small ; a pretty golden russet fruit, of rich flavour. 



Medium, of very fine flavour, distinct and valuable. 



Large ; abundantly prolific, succeeding in town gardens 

 better than any other ; certainly one of the most useful 

 Codlin apples ; fertile on either stodk. Invaluable for 

 market plantation culture on a large scale, though 

 subject to canker in places. 



A handsome new dessert fruit. A.M., R H.S. 3/6, 5/- 



Medium ; compact grower, great bearer ; golden yellow ; 

 makes a good close Orchard tree, and is fertile and 

 beautiful on Paradise. 



Medium, a favourite late kind. 



Very large ; a very fine late fruit, keeping soundly. 

 Dwarfs, 2/6. 



Large ; a garden fruit of great excellence, soft flesh, 

 succeeding in warm soils as an open Standard, but it 

 is best on Paradise as a garden tree, especially as a 

 Cordon. 



Medium, a well-known sort, succeeds best on Paradise 

 stock. The finest fruit is produced on Espaliers and 

 Cordons ; not suitable for an orchard tree, and should 

 only be planted in warm soils and aspects. There is 

 an exploded myth that this old fruit is dying out, but 

 by working only from vigorous trees and on Paradise 

 stock the canker has been cured, and the fruit pro- 

 duced is grand in size and finish. 



Medium, a free growing hardy sort, of first-rate flavour 

 and appearance. 



Small, highly flavoured, russety, with bronzy crimson; 

 soft fleshed ; excellent as a Standard, and most prolific, 

 forming fertile Pyramids on Paradise. 



Large ; this old variety had almost fallen out of culture, 

 but on trial we have no hesitation in calling it the best 

 dessert kind. It is melting in flesh, very aromatic and 

 richly flavoured, brisk and agreeable ; on the Paradise 

 stock it becomes fruitful, and is worthy of a place in 

 the most select garden list. Much richer in flavour 

 than Cox's Orange or Ribston, and only needs to be 

 tasted to secure appreciation. No large trees. Do not 

 gather too early, and try on a wall. 



Large, distinct ; habit compact, but free ; very stout and 

 firm, so that the fruit does not fall in windy times ; so 

 late in flowering that it always crops. We have no 

 hesitation in recommending it as a sterling valuable sort. 

 Clear lemon colour, free from canker ; fine to graft on 

 old stems. A market apple, which will supplant softer 

 kinds ; does well North. 



Large, very handsome, perhaps the finest russet sent out. 

 F.C., R.H.S. Scarce. Dwarfs, 2/6 ; Standards, 5/0. 



Medium ; a new dessert from from Messrs. Rivers. 

 A.M., R.H.S. Dwarfs, 3/6, 6/0. 



Large ; a late apple, from the Prince of Wales gardens ; 

 of good flavour, hardy, and a free grower and bearer. 

 F.C., R.H.S. 



Medium, a heavy handsome fruit, which the late Mr. 

 Anthony Waterer considered the best he grew, free 

 bearer and excellent. Dwarfs, 2/6. 



Small, very handsome in colour and Bhape, flesh tender 

 and delicious ; too slender for Standards, but prolific 

 on Paradise as garden trees.
