ABBES8E D'OIGNIES. — Fruit, large and round, like a large Late 

 Duke, and somewliat inclined to oblate. Skin, bright cornelian red, 

 with sometimes a russety patch or amber-coloured mottle about the 

 apex. Stalk, green, short, and very stout, little more than an inch 

 long. Flesh, half tender, with a briskly acid flavour. Stone, large 

 and coarse. 



A second-rate cherry of the Eed Duke class. It is a large and 

 showy fruit, but not superior or equal to Belle Magnifique, which 

 belongs to the same class. 



ADAMS' OROWN {Adams' Crown Heart). — Fruit, mediuai'Sized, 

 obtuse heai^t-shaped, and slightly compressed on the side, marked 

 with a shallow suture. Skin, pale red, mottled with yellow. Stalk, 

 two inches long, inserted in a rather deep cavity. Flesh, white, 

 tender, juicy, and richly flavoured. 



An excellent early cherry, allied to the White Heart. It is ripe the 

 first week in July. The tree is an excellent bearer, and well suited 

 for orchard planting. 



It is extensively grown in the orchards about Rainham, Sittingbonrne, and 

 Faversham, for the supply of the London markets. It is not a very old variety, 

 as I have met with old people about Sittingboume who recoUect when it was first 

 introduced. It is said to have been raised by a person of the name of Adams 

 in that neighbourhood.

A variety of cherry which is grown more for cuiiosity and ornament than for 

 its fruit. It is Cerasus semperflorens of DecandoUe.
