The Early Orleans is very near like the foregoing ir aul re-- 
spects, except that it ripens ten days earlier. 
Branches downy. Fruit of the size and colour of the com- 
mon Orleans, a little more oval, and with a more shallow suture. 
Skin a little marbled. Flesh yellowish-green, of brisk flavour, 
rather richer than the old Orleans, and separates from the stone. 
A good bearer.

&c.,) so strongly resembles the foregoing in appearance, time 
of ripening, etc., as to be scarcely worthy of a separate description.
