WINTER VARIETIES— Continued 



Winter Rambo. Medium size, greenish yellow color, thick skin. 



Wagener. A superior large apple of beautiful bright red; fine 

 texture, high flavor and excellent quality. Tree bears early, 

 and is a reliable cropper. 



Winter Banana. Extra large, golden yellow, and beautifully 

 shaded with bright crimson red; firm, fine grained, rich, sub- 

 acid. The name suggests the high flavor. Tree thrives nearly 

 everywhere. Should be packed in bushels or boxes and sold 

 soon after picking. 



WINESAP. Somtimes called Old Winesap and Virginia Wine- 

 sap; medium size, oblong, smooth, and a fine dark red — one of 

 the best red colored apples grown; flesh yellow, crisp, tender, 

 very juicy, aromatic, firm and excellent flavor. Very long 

 keeper and considered the best cold storage variety, keeping until 

 July. A strong grower; comes into bearing early and is re- 

 markable for its regular and abundant crops. Grimes should 

 be planted with Winesap for proper pollinization. Winesap 

 has the reputation, being a leader for many years; the name is 

 familiar to everyone. Best box apple grown, which has made 

 it famous in Oregon and Washington; also a wonderful bushel 

 and barrel apple, being extensively grown in Virginia for export 

 and domestic trade. Supply of Winesap is always limited, 

 with heavy demand from the fancy markets, causing Winesap 

 to be one of the highest average priced apples commercially 

 grown. 



Yellow Newtown or Albemarle Pippin. Large, round, or 

 a little lop-sided, ribbed and somewhat irregular, long keeper. 

 Tree a slow grower and light bearer in poor soils, but right soil 

 and care bring a world-beater when it will thrive, but no good 

 at all in soils and under conditions not adapted to its exacting 

 requirements. Famous in section around Crozet, Va., and 

 sections of Oregon and Washington. Wonderful box apple, 

 and always brings highest prices. 



YORK IMPERIAL. Medium to large size, round, irregular 



i greenish yellow overlaid with bright red; flesh tender, firm, 

 crisp, and high flavor; wonderful keeper; can be kept in cold 

 storage until June. Tree is a vigorous grower, strong and 

 healthy; an unusually heavy bearer. Other varieties may fail 

 to set fruit and suffer from off years, but York Imperial, with 

 proper cultural methods, will bear consistently from year to 

 year. York Imperial is the most popular winter variety for 

 cooking; also good for eating; has a national reputation as a 

 strong leader, and favorable demand with average good prices. 

 York Imperial is a wonderful apple for packing in bushels for 

 the domestic trade; is possibly the largest and best selling 

 variety packed in barrels for the export trade, especially Euro- 

 pean and South American markets. Its long keeping, long 

 distance shipping qualities, attractive color, and being a heavy 

 cropper established York Imperial the leading commercial 

 apple for Southern Pennsylvania, Maryland, West Virginia 

 and Virginia, and generally considered as the best average 

 money maker. 



Yellow Bellflower. Large, yellow, good flavor.

Crab Apples 



Crab apples form a valuable crop, both in home and com- 

 mercial orchards, as they are much desired for preserves and 

 jellies, and in market bring good prices. The trees are particularly 

 desirable for planting in the home grounds as they are rather 

 small, distinctly ornamental and beautiful, whether in flower or 

 fruit. 



Florence. Summer. Carmine-red, very hardy. 



Hyslop. Deep crimson, large size, sub-acid and of good quality. 

 Fine for all kinds of preserving, canning, etc., and good to 

 eat fresh. Tree handsome. 



Martha. Bright yellow, shaded with red; flavor tart but mild. 



TRANSCENDENT. Yellow striped with red; good for eating 

 fresh and fine for preserving. Best of all crab apples. Tree 

 large; quick grower. 



Whitney. Largest crab apple; smooth, glossy, green, splashed 

 with red; good bearer. 



Prices same as standard apple trees.
