PLUMS 



Plums are easy to grow, few people realize 

 how easy it is to grow luscious, edible plums. 

 They thrive and bear readily on most any 

 land that is not too wet. Below is a selected 

 list of varieties chosen for their size, appear- 

 ance and flavor of their fruit, as well as 

 hardiness and strong growing characteristics 

 of the trees. 



We have some exceptionally good plum 

 trees to offer this year, all budded on whole 

 root seedlings. With our low prices it will 

 pay you to set out a few. 



BURBANK. Midseason. large cherry 

 red with thin lilac bloom. Flesh 

 amber-yellow with rich 

 sugary flavor; high qual- 

 ity and very productive. 

 A product of Burbank the 

 master plant breeder. 

 Should be in every or- 

 chard. 



BRADSHAW. Midseason, 

 large, dark violet -red, 

 juicy, excellent flavor. 

 One of the best for home 

 orchards. 



German Prune. Late, large, 

 dark purple, sweet. Good 

 for canning and drying. 



Italian Prune (Fellenberg). Late, medium 

 size, dark purple, delicious. Fine 

 for drying. 



RED JUNE. Very early, medium size, 

 deep vermilion-red. The best early 

 variety. 



Shropshire Damson. Late medium size, 

 dark purple, the popular old fash- 

 ioned Damson variety. 



Can be assorted Apples, Peaches, Cherries, 

 Pears, Plums or other fruit trees. 



APRICOTS 



The apricot is one of the most delightfully 

 luscious fruits grown, when eaten fully ripe 

 and fresh from the tree. It is remarkable that 

 such a rich and beautiful, golden, sweet fruit 

 is not planted more, especially since it ripens 

 just after the early cherries and before the 

 best early peaches. 

 ALEXANDER. Early, prolific, freestone, orange 



with red blush; very juicy and sweet flavor. 



A large prolific bearer that will withstand 



adverse weather conditions. This variety 



deserves greater popularity. 

 Early Golden. Small, pale orange in color, 



good flavor. 

 SUPERB. Medium size, light salmon-colored 



fruit. Hardy. 



NECTARINES 



There is a mistaken idea that the nectarine 

 is a cross between the peach and something 

 else, while it is really nothing more or less 

 than a smooth skinned peach. The melting, 

 juicy texture of the nectarine and its delicious 

 flavor furnishes one of the most delightful 

 fruits for eating during the summer. Plant a 

 few trees in your home orchard this year. 

 Red Roman. Greenish yellow, red cheek, flesh 



golden. 

 Boston. Bright yellow, red cheek; flesh yellow.
