This Orange was one of a collection of varieties imported by Mr. R. W. Pierce, who named it Ruby. The fruit is small to medium, round, and very well flavored ; it has a thin skin and but few seeds ; the tree is fairly vigorous, nearly thornless, a prolific,regular, and early bearer. Pineapple. An excellent variety, introduced some years ago, and in great favor in the Orange lake region of Florida. When grown in that section the fruit possesses a particularly fine pineapple flavor. Tree is a very strong, upright grower. Prolific ; fruit medium size ; thin peel; heavy and juicy. Washington Navel. Like other Navels, bears a peculiar umbilical formation on the summit or blossom end of the fruit; this protuberance is not as prominent as in some varieties of Navel Orange. The fruit is large to very large ; somewhat oval; flesh meaty, tender, sweet and high-flavored ; an exceptionally luscious fruit, without per- ceptible membranes or fiber in its interior make-up. Ranks first in quality. For its superior prolificness, the '' Washington'' is usually preferred to other Navel varieties in most localities where these are largely grown.
