A Bijoux. See Large Fruited. 



COMMON. — The common walnut being raised from seeds, there are 

 a great number of varieties among those grown in this country, varying 

 in size, flavour, thickness of the shell, and fertility. To secure a variety 

 of a certain character, it must be perpetuated by grafting in the same 

 way as varieties of other fruit-trees are propagated. 



A Coque Tendre. See Thin Shelled. 

 Double. See Large Fruited. 



DWARF PEOLIFIC {Early Bearing; Fertile; Prmparturiens ; 

 Precocious), — This is a dwarf-growing, early-bearing variety, which I 

 have seen produce fruit when not more than two and a half to three 

 feet high ; and a tree in my possession bore abundant crops of good- 

 sized and well-flavoured fruit when not more than sis feet high. 



This variety reproduces itself from seed. 



Early Bearing. See Dwarf Prolific, 

 Fertile. See Dwarf Prolific.

HIGHFLYER. — This variety ripens its fruit considerably earlier 

 'than the others, and is of good size and well flavoured.
