The number of Fruit trees, remaining to be proved, is very 

 considerable. They consist of Apples, Pears, Cherries and Plums, 

 from the continents of Europe and America ; and of Vines from the 

 former, from Asiatic Russia, and even from the Deccan. Some 

 of those from the latter country, described by Colonel Sykes in the 

 Transactions, will in all probability fruit next season. 



In the Kitchen Garden a great mass of notes has accumulated on 

 the comparative merits of New Vegetables, the more interesting 

 particulars of which are from time to time published in the Society's 

 Transactions. It is however seldom that any new vegetables are 

 raised of decidedly superior quality, and there seems to be no intel- 

 ligible use in perpetuating kinds whose only merit is that of being 

 different in some trifling particular from sorts of equal or superior 

 value previously well-known. 



It may however be stated that the following vegetables examined 

 since 1830 have such a degree of excellence as renders them deserv- 

 ing of general cultivation : — 



Peas. 



Auvergne Groom's Superb Dwarf Blue 



Dwarf Brittany Large Crooked Sugar. 



Beans. 



Dutch Long Pod Marshall's Early Dwarf Prolific. 



Haricots. 



Early Dwarf Dutch Soissons 

 Predome American Runner.
