CHERRIES 



MONTMORENCY CHERRIES 



STRAWBERRY-RASPBERRY 



Another delightful, everbearing cane- 

 fruit for which we are indebted to the 

 Orient. Where the seasons are very- 

 cold, it acts like a herbaceous perennial, 

 plants freezing to the ground and coming 

 up again the following spring. 



This is a most decorative contribution 

 to our gardens, with its endless succes- 

 sion, from July until frost, of flowers, 

 fruits in all stages of development and 

 ornamental foHage throughout the season. 

 It bears its sparkling large crimson ber- 

 ries from July until frost. They are too 

 tart to be eaten raw, but, combined and 

 cooked with Raspberries, they develop a 

 flavor bound to delight any epicure. The 

 berries are borne singly, or in clus- 

 ters, and as a continuous crop. 

 Strong plants, dozen, $2.50. 



QUINCES 



Plant 10 feet apart each way. 

 First=class trees, each, $1.00; dozen,

 ish-yellow fruit on strong-growing trees.

Large two- and three-year-old Cherry-
