Brit. lxxxviii. f. 1. Fruit, medium sized, three inches broad, and two and a half high; roundish, flattened on both sides, rather broadest at the base, and generally with five obscure angles on the sides. Skin, dull yellowish-green in the shade, and with a patch of thin, dull, brownish-red on the side next the sun, which is so entirely covered with brown russet that little color is visible; the shaded side is marked with large linear patches of rough brown russet. Eye, closed, with broad flat segments, and set in a deep and angular basin. Stalk, very short, imbedded in a deep and angular cavity. Flesh, yellow, firm, crisp, juicy, rich, and sugary, with a brisk and excellent flavor. A very fine dessert apple of first-rate quality; in use from November to May. The tree is a healthy and vigorous grower, and an excellent bearer. This is one of the finest old French apples; but considered inferior to the Reinette Franche. 297. REINETTE JAUNE SUCRÉE.--Hort.

Gelbe Zuckerreinette, _Diel Kernobst._ v. 112. Fruit, rather above medium size, three inches broad, and two and a half high; roundish, and very much flattened at the base. Skin, thin and tender, pale green at first, but changing as it attains maturity to a fine deep yellow, with a deeper and somewhat of an orange tinge on the side exposed to the sun; and covered all over with numerous large russety dots, and a few traces of delicate russet. Eye, open, with long acuminate, green segments, set in a wide, rather deep, and plaited basin. Stalk, an inch long, inserted in a deep round cavity, which is lined with thin russet. Flesh, yellowish, delicate, tender and very juicy, with a rich sugary flavor and without much acidity. Either as a dessert or culinary apple, this variety is of first-rate excellence; it is in use from November to February. The tree is a free and vigorous grower, and a good bearer, but it is very subject to canker unless grown in a light and warm soil. 298. REINETTE VAN MONS. Fruit, rather below medium size, two inches and a half wide, and two inches and a quarter high; inclining to conical in shape. Skin, yellow on the shaded side, but redish-brown, shading off to orange-yellow, where exposed to the sun; the whole strewed with numerous russety dots. Eye, closed, and placed in a small, round basin. Stalk, short, inserted in a shallow cavity, which is lined with russet. Flesh, yellow, tender, crisp, rich, and sugary.
