Also sent us by Mr. Greisa; he says: "Has. 'A Bellflower; it certainly has very close resemblance to it exceeds in any neatness, in which particular it excels all others in my orchard, which is composed of all leading sorts; it never fails to crop the year through, and that is more than my other kinds have done; it retains its rich juiciness through the entire season."
