DESCRIPTIVE CATALOGUE. 13 Langford—This new apple originated in Kent Co., Maryland. Tree is vigorous, upright, with rather slender, firm branches, productive, bearing annual crops ; fruit large, striped and shaded with pale and dark red over half or more of its surface ; flesh whitish, tender, moderately juicy, inclining to sweet. December to March. Mammoth Black Twig—A new apple from Arkansas. Large size, color red, resembling very much the Winesap, though much larger and finer apple ; a good keeper. Marshall's Seedling—A California seedling, said to be a cross between the Red June and Yellow Bellflower. It has the deep, brilliant red of the Red June, with its sprightly acid flavor, but the exact shape of a good sized yellow Bellflower. The tree is a strong, upright grower, and a regular and heavy bearer. The fruit was highly recom- mended by a committee of the State Horticultural Society, as of superior excellence. Red Bietigheimer—A German variety of excellent quality ; fruit large to very large, round- ish, conical; skin pale cream-colored ground, mostly covered with purplish crimson. Flesh white, firm, sub-acid, with a brisk, pleasant flavor. Tree a strong grower, with large, smooth leaves, an abundant bearer. This is one of the largest and handsomest apples, and worthy of extensive cultivation.
