Best  breeder  in  the  show.— Mr.  Needham,  with  Alfred  Lloyd. 
Peach,  Duke  of  York, 
Messrs.  Thomas  Rivers  and  Son,  of  Sawbridgeworth,  .staged 
a  dish  of  this  new  variety  of  Peach  at  the  Royal  Horticultural 
Society’s  meeting  on  May  20.  In  referring  to  it,  we  said  that 
this  was  a  variety  “that  is  .sure  to  come  to  the  front,  and  is 
spoken  of  by  experienced  growers  as  an  exceedingly  good  Peach.” 
The  Fruit  Committee  recommended  an  Award  of  Merit.  The 
size  and  form  is  shown  by  our  illustration,  and  outwardly  the 
fruit  is  pretty  and  well  coloured.  The  flavour  is  excellent.  The 
variety  resulted  from  a  cross  between  Early  Rivers  Nectarine 
and  Alexander  Peach,  and  the  offspring  ripens  as  early  as  the 
Alexander  Peach,  but  has  the  merit  of  maintaining  its  buds, 
which  the  latter  (American)  parent  often  drops.
