Inwood Favourite — This splendid new Onion, raised by 
Mr. T. Wilkins, Gardener to Lady T. Guest, has been 
miich admired. It is a cross between Rousham Park and 
Crimson Globe, but is far handsomer than either. It has a ; 
greater depth of bulb than Rousham Park, and in shape is 
nearly globular, with conspicuous shoulders; in colour it is 
pale pink. Bulbs have been grown during the last two 
seasons nearly 2 lbs. in weight ; it is, therefore, on account of 
its great size and fine form one Of the best Exhibition 
sorts. The flesh is remarkably firm and solid, and it has 
been proved a splendid keeping variety. Being a strong grower, 
it resists mildew better than many sorts of weaker constitution.
