 stalk. Eye, small and open, with short erect segments, set in a wide, 

 shallow basin. Stalk, slender, very short, inserted in a small hole. 

 Flesh, yellowish, juicy, melting, rather coarse-grained, sweet, and with-

 shallow basin. Stalk, an inch long, stout, and inserted in a small 

 cavity. Flesh, whitish, rather gritty at the core, tender, very juicy,

 rather deep and uneven basin. Stalk, an inch long, stout and woody, 

 inserted in a line with the axis of the fruit in a small cavity. Flesh, 

 yellowish, with a greenish tinge, melting, but not buttery, being rather
