is employed principally for pickling and preserving; its small size
rendering it of little value for stewing or for catchup.
Mixed with the Yellow, they make a fine garnish, and are excellent for
salad.
ROUND RED.
A small, round, red variety, measuring about an inch in diameter. It is
one of the earliest of all the cultivated sorts, but of little value
except for pickling or preserving.
ROUND YELLOW.
Of the size and form of the foregoing, differing only in color.
SEEDLESS.
Very similar to, if not identical with, the Perfected. Fruit almost
rose-red, solid, and with comparatively few seeds.
TREE-TOMATO. _Vil._ _Hov. Mag._
New Upright. Tomate de Laye.
A new variety, raised from seed by Grenier, gardener to M. de Fleurieux,
at a place in France called Chateau de Laye (whence the name), and
introduced by M. Vilmorin of Paris.
It is distinct from all others; rising quite erect to the height of two
feet or upwards, with a stem of remarkable size and strength. The
branches are not numerous, and comparatively short, usually eight or ten
inches in length,--thus requiring no heading-in; leaves not abundant,
rather curled, much wrinkled, very firm, closely placed on the sturdy
branches, and of a remarkably deep, shining-green color; fruit
bright-red, of large size, comparatively smooth, and well filled to the
centre,--in many respects, resembling the Perfected, though more regular
in form.
From the peculiar, tree-like character of the plants, the variety is
remarkably well adapted for cultivation in pots; but its late maturity
greatly impairs its value as a variety for forcing. It is a slow grower,
tardy in forming and perfecting its fruit, and, for ordinary garden
culture, cannot be recommended as being preferable to the Perfected and
other earlier and much more prolific varieties. It has been described as
strictly self-supporting: but, though the fruit is produced in a
remarkably close and almost clasping manner about the sturdy stem and
branches, its weight often brings the plants to the ground; and
consequently, in exposed situations, it will be necessary to provide
stakes, or some similar means of support; though the plants never
exhibit the rambling, recumbent character of the Common Tomato.
WHITE TOMATO.
Plant similar in habit to the Large Red; fruit large, generally ribbed,
often irregular, but sometimes comparatively smooth. Its distinguishing
characteristic is its color, which, if the fruit be screened by foliage
or if grown in the shade, is almost clear white; if much exposed to the
sun, it assumes a yellowish tinge, much paler, however, than the Large
Yellow. Flesh yellowish, more watery than that of the Large Red, and of
a somewhat peculiar flavor, much esteemed by some, and unpalatable to
others.
The variety is hardy, remarkably productive, as early as the Large Red,
and equally large and solid: but its color, before and after being
cooked, is unattractive; and it is rarely seen in the markets, and
seldom cultivated for family use.
WHITE'S EXTRA EARLY.
Early Red. Extra Early.
A medium-sized Red variety, generally round, but frequently of an oval
form, flattened, sometimes ribbed, but comparatively smooth, and, when
fully matured, of a deeper color than the later Red sorts. Average
specimens measure about two inches and a half in diameter, and an inch
and a half in depth. The plants are moderately vigorous, and readily
distinguished by their peculiar curled and apparently withering foliage.
Flesh pale-red, quite firm, mild, not very seedy, and well filling the
fruit, which is considerably heavier than the Apple-shaped. When cooked,
it yields a much greater product, in proportion to its size, than the
last-named and similar hollow-hearted varieties. Productive, and of good
quality.
Planted at the same time with the Common Red varieties, it will ripen
about two weeks earlier. An excellent sort for the garden, and
recommended for general cultivation.
In order to retain this or any other early variety in its purity, seed
for planting should be saved from the smoothest, best formed, and
earliest ripened fruit. Few of the numerous kinds now cultivated possess
much permanency of character; and rapidly degenerate, if raised from
seed taken from the scattered, irregular, and comparatively immature
tomatoes remaining upon the plants at the close of the season.
YELLOW CHERRY-TOMATO.
A yellow variety of the Red Cherry-tomato,--differing only in color.
Quite showy, but of little value for culinary purposes.
YELLOW PEAR-SHAPED TOMATO.
Yellow Fig-tomato.
A sub-variety of the Red Pear-shaped, with a clear, semi-transparent,
yellow skin and yellow flesh. Like the preceding, it is little used
except for preserving and pickling.
YELLOW PLUM-TOMATO.
A variety of the Red Plum, of the same size and form, and equally
symmetrical; distinguished only by the color of its skin, which is a
fine, clear, transparent yellow. It is used principally for preserving;
its small size rendering it comparatively valueless for use in any other
form.
When the two varieties are intermixed, the colors present a fine
contrast; and a basket of the fruit is quite a beautiful object.
