The buds upon it in the winter of 1897 were similar to those marked a: during the summer of 1898, when the terminal bud at «' was growing into a long leafy shoot, they developed short leafy shoots, similar to B and C, Fig. 17, each of which went to winter rest with a terminal fruit-bud upon Fig. 17.—A, Piece of last season's shoot of pear tree with wood or leaf-bud as seen in autumn. B, The same in the following midsummer;' the bud has now given rise to a short shoot or * spur* bearing leaves and terminated by a fruit-bud. C, The same as B after leaves have fallen in autumn, shewing ' spur' terminated by the plump fruit-bud. Parts similar to b, therefore, are not merely stalked buds, but short branches bearing terminal fruit buds; they are one-year-old fruit-spurs, the terminal buds of which in 1899 will open into a short stem bearing flowers similar to B, Fig. 18. At </ is a bud still in the undeveloped condition in which it was first produced, and is therefore similar to a, except that it is two years old : it is a dormant Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Percival, John, 1863-1949.
