The flesh is white, mixed with green, soft, with a sweet, plea- 

 sant juice. It is one of the most common Apples in old 

 cottage gardens, and is brought in great plenty to the Nor- 

 wich market from Michaelmas to Christmas, and with care 

 will keep much later. 



5. Harvey, or Dr. Harvey's Apple. Middle size ; very 

 perfect oval, slightly angular on the sides ; skin pale yellow, 

 with a large proportion of light-coloured russet. The flesh 

 is white, crisp, and juicy, very highly sugared, with a plea- 

 sant acidity. Jt is one of the most common winter Apples 

 in the Norwich market ; when baked it becomes a most ex- 

 cellent sweet-meat, far exceeding any other that I have met 

 with. The tree is a very hardy one, and grows to a good 

 size. 



6. London Pippin. This Apple, though now very com- 

 mon, is of Norfolk origin. It is also known as the Five- 

 crown Pippin, from the five distinct angles on its sides, 

 terminating round the eye. It is common in the Nor- 

 wich market throughout the winter. The fruit is produced 

 very much in. clusters, the shoots are short, and the tree, 

 which is of the middle size, forms a very close and compact 

 head. 



7. Baxter's Pearmain. A handsome Pearmain-shaped Apple, 

 with crisp, juicy, and high flavoured flesh ; not inferior to 

 any of the Pearmains. It is a real Norfolk Apple, but not 

 so plentiful in the market as the four preceding sorts, for 

 many of the old trees are in a state of decay, but I have 

 not observed this to be the case with those more recently 

 planted. The shoots are long, not erect, and the tree 

 makes a large irregular head.
