Silver Knightian Medal. 
To Messrs. Sutton, Reading, for Leeks. 
A ward of Merit. 
To Apple ' Orleans Reinette ' (votes unanimous) , exhibited by Messrs. 
Bunyard & Co., Maidstone. This is an excellent dessert apple, whose origin 
seems doubtful, but it is said to be an old variety, mentioned in 1776, but now 
little known. The tree is of sturdy habit, short jointed, and fairly prolific. 
Fruit to medium size, bright on the sunny side, dull on the shaded side ; flesh 
crisp, excellent and juicy ; keeping well to the end of the year ; one of the best 
dessert apples of its season ; said to combine the Ribston and Blenheim 
flavours. Should be better known.
