The Hesh is soft, with a pleasant, sweet, slight apricot flavor. ^ Hyakume. Fruit very large; roundish, oblate. Skin ver-⢠million red, shows black at the end when ripe. Fleshy, few seeds. Flesh rusty brown with many brown dots. Juicy, very delicious. Kurokume. Fruit medium, oblate, somewhat f^ur-sided. Skin yellowish red. Flesh orange; hardly any seeds; juicy, sweet. Excellent quality. ^ Yemon. (Among.) Fruit large, round, flattened, four- sided. Skin orange color. Flesh pale yellow, containing few seeds. It never loses its austerity naturally, but is made delicious by packing the half-ripe astringent fruit in new casks, covering tightly with a lid for some time, when they ripen. V Zenji Maru. Fruit medium size, round. Skin red, marked with black on the end when quite ripe. Flesh crisp, rusty brown color, with many small purplish-blnck dots. Many-seeded.
