62 DWARF FRUIT TREES 



Varieties of specially good flavor would be given 

 special thought, even though they might lack in hardi- 

 ness or productivity. The special favorites of the 

 man who owns the garden should be chosen, no 

 matter whether they are popular or not. Then for 

 similar reasons a comparatively long list of varieties 

 will be chosen instead of the very short list always 

 held to by the commercial grower. From first to last 

 one should remember that the growing of dwarf fruit 

 trees is essentially the enterprise of an amateur, not 

 of a man who grows fruit for money.
