by Mr. Sutton of Morden, now the occupier of the garden 

 of the late Abraham Goldsmid, Esq. Mr. Si r ion knows 

 nothing of its history, nor has he given it a name. Not 

 having met with any Apple like it, I have ventured to call 

 it the Bloom Apple, from its singular beauty. It is of great 

 excellence, and the tree is an abundant bearer. 



Pomme cle Ni£ge. This Apple, according to Forsyth, 

 was introduced into this country from Canada, by Mr. 

 Barclay of Brompton. It is by him called Famcuse, a 

 name which has generally been adopted by the nurserymen, 

 but sometimes corrupted into Formeuse. It would be well, 

 however, to restore its original appellation, so very character- 

 istic of the colour of its flesh, which is as white as snow. 



Orange Apple, of the Isle of Wight. This variety is no- 

 ticed in the Society's Transactions, Vol. ii. page 403. 



Cluster Golden Pippin. So called from its clustering mode 

 of growth. It is apt, more than any other Apple, to form 

 monstrosities. A tree in a garden at Thornbury, near Bristol, 

 uniformly produces its whole crop in perfectly formed twins, 

 specimens of which were sent to the Society by Mr. Wil- 

 liam Bullock. By some it is called the Stone Pippin, from 

 its hardness and keeping quality, and by others the Golden 

 Knob, but erroneously. 



Croftm Apple. It is usual to divide the Crofton into Bed 

 and White; there is, however, no real difference, exposure 

 alone producing the higher colour. This is in some places 

 called Saul Apple. 



Grange Apple. The Apple here recommended is the 

 Grange of Mr. Knight, and resembles in many respects 

 the Orange Pippin from which it sprung. A great number 

 of Apples pass under this name, assigned to them no doubt,
