Rymer Ajyjle. So named in compliment to a gentleman 

 at Tliirsk, who raised the tree several years ago. We are 

 indebted to Sir Thomas Frankland for bringing this 

 excellent variety into notice. It is a handsome Apple of the 

 middle size, with the eye considerably sunk ; the ground 

 colour of the skin is a bright green, deepening to yellow, 

 with a good deal of red striping, freckled with russet ; the 

 flesh is soft, melting, and juicy, with a fine brisk flavour, 

 which becomes very rich when the fruit is baked. The 

 original tree has been grubbed up, but many young plants 

 have been raised by grafts from it, several of which have 

 been presented to the Society by Sir Thomas Frankland, 

 and dispersed amongst the nurserymen round London, who 

 are Fellows of the Society. 



Coates Apple. A very large compact Apple from the 

 neighbourhood of Derby, sent by Robert Holden, Esq. 

 It possesses every requisite for a good kitchen Apple, and 

 as the tree is an abundant bearer, it should be generally 

 cultivated. 



Dutch Belle Fleur. Specimens of a large Apple, without 

 a name, were sent to the Society by Mr. Sutton, of Morden, 

 which, by specimens subsequently received from Holland, 

 proves to be the Belle Fleur, a fruit very uncommon in this 

 country, although of the highest quality, being excellent for 

 the Kitchen when first ripe, and coming into eating in the 

 months of April and May.
