22 HARRISONS’ NURSERIES 

Delicious 
Winter. Brilliant dark red, shading to yellow at the blossom end. 
Flesh white and tender. Large size 
An apple of comparatively recent introduction which has literally 
taken apple-growers by storm. Taking up its good points in com- 
parison with those of the apples previously recognized as standard, 
you can see that Delicious has taken a great step in advance of the rest. 
You may question any one of the virtues which a good apple should 
have and find Delicious as good, if not better, than any other variety 
which has been sold almost on the merit of that virtue alone. 
IS IT HARDY? 
You can take our advice upon this point and rest assured that you'll 
have no trouble with winter-killing when you plant Delicious. It 
will grow in as cold regions as any of them. 
WHAT ABOUT SIZE AND TASTE? 
Size is all that anyone could desire, as it usually runs from large to 
extra large. The large size and peculiar shape make it a very fast seller. 
Taste will be found on a par with its other points of advantage. The 
flavor is rich, slightly subacid, with an individuality which makes the 
palate call for more. You'll have no trouble with ‘“‘repeat sales’ for 
this variety. 
SHIP WELL? 
Delicious ships without bruising. Its large size makes it easy to 
pack attractively, and the uniformity of size guarantees a good 
appearance. Your discounts for spoiled fruit will be low indeed. 
Delicious is not only a commercial apple, but it is every bit as well 
adapted to the home grounds. Whether you wish to plant a thousand 
or if you have room for only one tree, Delicious will give full value.
