The above is a photograph of a plant of the Ponderosa Lemon taken Oct. 1st. 1900. On April 

 15th this plant was entirely leafless and shows what a remarkable free growing and free fruiting 

 ]emon Ponderosa is. Read what the lady says about this plant who grew it and from whom we 

 purchased it.

1 received your letter yesterday and was very glad to hear that the Lemon Tree gave 

 such perfect satisfaction. 1 assure you we still miss the tree as every one thought it a beauty. 

 I cannot say where the Lemon Tree came from, I have had it for several years and the friend 

 who gave it to me could not tell how it originated. It was very easy to keep, for after it ripen- 

 ed its fruit in thefall I placed it in my cellar which is very bright, having two windows in it. The 

 spring before you bought the tree from me it had a few buds on when I brought it out of the 

 cellar. I set it in the yard in the open air and in June it was a beautiful sight in full bloom, and 

 it was in full bloom from that time until you bought it. All those large lemons grew on it after 

 I brought it from the cellar. I can say of this Lemon that it is grand and no one ever saw any 

 thing like it and any one may be proud to have it. ELIZABETH HAGERMAN.
