HANSEN BUSH CHERRY 



SWEET SEPTEMBER 



"^T^^K. U. S. Plant Patent No. 94. 



(First successful fall Cherry) 

 The accidental discovery of this amazing variety has filled a large gap 

 in the fruit grov/er's list, and perhaps has started a new race of fruit — ■ 

 the fall-bearing Cherry. Sweet September ripens its attractive dark red 

 fruit in early autumn and, unless picked, they will hang on the tree, with- 

 out rotting, until the snow falls. The fruit itself is of excellent quality for 

 canning or for eating out of hand, and the tree is exceptionally hardy 

 and prolific. Every land owner should have some to extend his Cherry 

 season until the winter. Good strong trees, each $1.75, 10 $16.50. 



THE HANSEN BUSH 

 CHERRY 



5 to 6 feet. It is difficult to de- 

 cide whether this breath-taking 

 discovery is more valuable for 

 its ornamental beauty, or for the 

 lovely flavor of its fruit. The 

 silvery green foliage, turning 

 red in the fall, bears a great 

 mass of white bloom each 

 spring, making it a charming 

 sight on any lawn. Thousands 

 of Cherries are borne the year 

 after the bush is planted, fre- 

 quently the same year, and can 

 be used to make a delicious, 

 richly colored jam. Try some of 

 these flowering and fruiting 

 bushes this season, for we are sure that you will join us in claiming that 

 this variety is really too perfect for us to believe our eyes or our palates. 



(Plant bushes 2 to 4 feet apart in rows 4 to 6 feet apart in the home 

 garden.) 



Stocky, 2-yr. plants; each SOc, doz. S5.00, 100 $35.00. 



PLUM TREES 



Our list of Plums is this season at its best, and our individual trees 

 have never been better. Try some, and you will enjoy a genuine taste- 

 thrill, be they fresh, canned or jellied. 



Plant 20 feet apart each way. 



First-class trees, each 75c, doz. $7.50, 100 $50.00.

 red in mid-August.
