Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Transactions of the Massachusetts Horticultural Society, for the Year 1878, Vol. 1
The culture Of fruits, and vegetables, being far better developed in this country than that of ?owers, does not afford the same scope for improvement. In some particulars, the farthest progress seems to be reached already. In pears, for example, it 'would be hardly reasonable to expect any conspicuous improvement from year to year. In grapes, again, the case is different; and let us hope that our exhibitors will not rest content till they have equalled, at least under glass, the highest results of European culture.
