flesh fine in the grain, highly flavoured, with a pleasant perfume. In sea¬

D. T. Fish. —The Gardener’s Chronicle thus describes this fine new 
apple : “ Large, roundish, flat at both ends, irregular, and obtusely angu¬ 
lar, eye small, half closed, set in an evenly-formed shallow basin, stalk 
short, thin, and level with the base of the fruit; skin smooth, of a uni¬ 
form clear straw-colour, with small specks of russet, and on the side where 
the sun strikes it, slightly flushed with crimson; flesh tender, juicy, and 
with a fine pleasant sub-acid flavour. A very handsome, and excellent
