An excellent variety, ripening in the end of August or beginning of September, about the time of the Grosse Mignonne. It is very different from the Red Magdalen Peach of the Nurseries, which is a larger frui...t, with more colour, and small flowers. The tree is rather subject to mildew. According to Mr. Lindley, this is the true Red Magdalen Peach of Miller. It is remarkable for its fine, rich, vinous flavour. Leaves dark green, coarsely and doubly ser- rated, glandless. Flowers large, pale blush. Fruit small, globular, flattened, deeply cleft on one side. Colour pale yellow, with a blush of clear pink where exposed. Flesh quite white, not Digitized by Google stained at the stone, from which it parts freely; very melting, juicy, vinous, and rich.
