Text Appearing Before Image:
riety is easily the most striking and peculiar of all the delta varieties.The heavy compact bunches are borne unevenly on coarse, strong strands, or sham-rokh. The fruits are about 2 to 24; inches long, 1J inches broad, rather oblique, andinclined to be oblong for about two-thirds of the length, when the diameter is reducedso abruptly as to form a sort of shoulder on the outer side, and it narrows to an obtuse,unsymmetrical apex (fig. 8). The ground color of the fruit is close to orange-buff (R. Ill) or Capucine orange (R. Ill), shaded, mottled, and streaked longitudinally with a color for which pome-granate purple (R.
