Some apology is necessary to the general Reader and ex- 

 perienced Gardener for the detail entered into, in quoting the 

 names given in these works, but it will doubtless be service- 

 able to those who in possessing one or all of these books may 

 be desirous of ascertaining to which of the varieties I have 

 described, the kinds, they have been used to read of, are to be 

 referred. Without such an examination of the formerly pub- 

 lished names as has now been made, it might have bee i sup- 

 posed that sorts which are really described had been omitted 

 by me. 



For the purpose of facilitating reference to the various 

 kinds of Strawberries described in this Paper I have added 

 the following Index, in which the established names of each 

 variety are printed in Roman characters, and every synonym 

 in Italics.
