Other varieties of the same plant, which will afford abundant 

 crops, and be capable of being longer preserved in perfection 

 than any now known, so that the markets might always afford the 

 Potatoe, as nearly as possible, in the greatest state of perfection. 



A rich and sweet variety of the common Red Currant, which 

 might probably be obtained from seeds, by appropriate selection, 

 through a few successive generations. 



New varieties of the Gooseberry, which might supply the 

 markets with green fruit at earlier periods, and mature fruit at 

 earlier and later periods than those now cultivated. 



New varieties of Pears, similar to those which have been intro-

A good and early new variety of Grape, better adapted to the 

 climate of Great Britain, in open air, than any now known. 



Better and more productive varieties of the Apple, and capable 

 of being longer preserved in perfection, than most hitherto

A good early Nectarine : a variety of the Strawberry earlier

More early and hardier varieties of the Peach, which might

 espalier trees. 



Several native varieties of the Plum afford blossoms so hardy,
