A large dessert apple, of second-rate quality. It is of a roundish shape, striped with red, and comes into use in September. The tree is a great bearer.--_H. S. C._ n. 268. 860. SUMMER HEDGING. A small cider apple, of roundish shape, and red color.--_H. S. C._ n. 812. 861. SUMMER MARIGOLD. It is a handsome fruit, and a great favorite in the West of England, particularly in South Devon. Rather larger than the Golden Pippin, it is of a fine light red, with deeper streaks of the same color, on the sun side. The flesh is breaking, and the juice pleasant, and abundant. It is a prolific bearer, and makes a fine orchard standard tree of the third class, but will bear well in any way. Ripens in the end of August. _Rog. Fr. Cult._ 31. 862. SUMMER QUEEN. A medium sized American apple, of second-rate quality; suitable for culinary purposes.

A large kitchen apple, of second-rate quality; of a conical shape, yellow color, and ripe in August. The tree is a good bearer.--_H. S. C._ p. 42. 865. SUMMER SWEET PARADISE. A Pennsylvania fruit, sent to us by J. B. Garber, Esq., a zealous fruit grower of Columbia, in that state. It is a large, fair, sweet apple, and is certainly one of the finest of its class, for the dessert. The tree is an abundant bearer, begins to bear while young, and is highly deserving general cultivation. It has no affinity to the paradise apple used for stocks. Fruit, quite large, round and regular in its form, a little flattened at both ends. Skin, rather thick, pale green, sometimes faintly tinged with yellow in the sun, and very distinctly marked with numerous, large, dark grey dots. Stalk, strong, set in an even and moderately deep cavity. Flesh, tender, crisp, very juicy, with a sweet, rich, aromatic flavor. Ripe in August and September.--_Down. Fr. Amer._ 96. 866. SUSSEX.
