(') I have never met with either Miller's Red Magdalen Peach, or his Elruge 

 Nectarine, nor do I think they are cultivated at present by any nurseryman in 

 England; but as Miller states that his Red Magdalen Peach is the same as 

 Madeleine de Courson, it has been inserted as such upon his authority. 



(») In Hooker's Pomona the figure of the Noblesse is not correct, because it 

 has either been taken from an imperfect specimen with its crown hollow, or from a 

 Vanguard fruit, which is similar to the Noblesse in all points, except that the 

 crown of the latter is usually a little pointed. 



(*) I have examined both flowers and fruit of Mellish's Favourite Peach, upon 

 a tree sent by Mr. Mellish to his sister Mrs. Gurdon of Letton, in Norfolk, 

 and I could perceive no difference between them and those of the Noblesse.
