(See page 37.) \ Grand Admirable Cling. Full medium size ; skin white, nearh' covered with red ; a \ very handsome and excellent peach, and a good bearer. First of August. Grosse Mignonne. [Royal Kensington.) Fruit large ; dull white, with red cheek ; flesh pale, juicy, with a very rich, high, somewhat vinous flavor; a free grower and good bearer ; separates from the stone, which is small. First of August. George the Fourth. Of large size and of the highest flavor ; skin nearly white, with a red cheek ; flesh pale, slightly red at the stone, melting, juicy, rich and excellent; tree \ very vigorous and moderately productive ; freestone. Last of Jul)-. ^'Golden Dwarf, {l^an Buren's.) This very distinct and attractive variety originated in Georgia ; the tree is of diminutive growth, seldom attaining more than four or five feet in height; foliage dense, which it retains until quite late in the season ; fruit large ; skin yellow, with a red cheek ; flesh yellow, subacid, adhering firmly to the stone ; quite hardy and free from disease. Ripens last of September. ' Heath Freestone. A fine peach ; fruit large ; skin white ; flesh juicy, rather tender, with a good flavor. Beginning of September. Harker. [Harker's Seedling.) Large, red ; flesh white, red at the stone, juicy, rich ; one of the best flavored peaches grown, and well deserving of the high favor in which it is held by those who know it. Middle of August. Heath Cling. This is, perhaps, the very best of the late clingstone peaches. Its very large size, beautiful appearance, high and luscious flavor, combined with its late maturity, and the long time it may be kept after taken from the tree, render it a most valuable sort for market.
