          32833. PRUNUS ARMENIACA. 
Apricot. From Frank N.
Meyer, Russian Turkestan. A native
Central Asian variety of apricot called 
by the natives "Bairan-Ali."  Said
to be of excellent quality. Grafted on

37006. PRUNUS ARMENIACA. 
Apricot. From Chita, Transbaikal, 
Siberia, through M. M. Timogowitsch. 
Coming from the extremely
cold region of Transbaikal these seedling 
apricots are worthy of trial in the
extreme northwest where, even if not
valuable as table fruits, they are likely
to be of use in the origination of a
hardier strain of apricot.

discovered north of Tachienlu, China,
at altitude of 9,000 feet. Fruit one
inch in diaimeter; fuzzy, with smooth
stone; edible. Shows tendency to
bloom late in the spring; may prove
useful for breeding purposes or as
