LOVETT'S NURSERY, LITTLE SILVER, N.J.— HARDY GRAPES 15 



LOVETT'S CACO GRAPE 



Caco is a hybrid produced by 

 hand pollenization of the varieties 

 Catawba and Concord. It inherits 

 the valuable characteristics of both 

 parents in a remarkable decree, 

 minus any of their defects. A per- 

 fectly hardy grape that has 

 been pronounced by America's 

 most expert grower of hot- 

 house grapes to equal, in high 

 quality and melting texture, the 

 finest varieties grown under 

 glass. When one considers the 

 price of the greenhouse orod- 

 uct, and realizes that the won- 

 derful Caco can be grown in the 

 backyard almost without attention, 

 the force of the above statement is 

 apparent. 



In appearance, the most beautiful 

 of hardy grapes; berry large, wine- 

 red with abundant bloom. Bunch of 

 good size, compact and of good form. 

 Ripens in advance of Concord; so rich 

 in sugar it is excellent in flavor two 

 weeks in advance of being full}' ripe. Vine 

 a very strong, vigorous grower, healthy 

 and prolific. The fruit sells in open mar- 

 ket, by the crate, at double the price of 

 other varieties. 



The cardinal qualities of Caco are: Ex- 

 treme rich, r-ugary flavor, beauty of fruit 

 beyond words to describe, and what is 

 most important, extreme vigor of vine. 

 To be brief, we are entirely sincere when 

 we claim Caco to be: 



The highest in quality of all hardy grapes. 



Equals in high quality and melting texture 

 the finest varieties grown under glass 



The most beautiful of all hardy grapes. 



Red and amber overlaid with beautiful 

 bloom. 



The strongest in growth of all hardy grapes. 



Much stronger than Concord. 



Prices of Caco Grape Vines: 1 year. each. 

 75c.; dozen, $7.50. 2 years, each, $1.00; dozen, 

 $10.00. Heavy, fruiting age vines, each. $2.00; 

 dozen, $20.00. 



Please read this testimonial (one of hundreds 

 received) and note that we are not alone in 

 our enthusiasm over this wonderful variety: 



Myerstown, Pa., Oct. 4, 1921. 



Last spring I received from you a few Caco Grape vines 

 with some other stock. To my great surprise the two-year- 

 old vine bore four bunches of grapes. I showed it to a 

 number of my neighbors. The grapes are the most luscious 

 T ever tasted. I retired from a gospel ministry of fortv- 

 •five years, thirty-seven years in one charge, and will be 

 delighted to eat some of your beautiful Caco Grapes for 

 a short time yet. 



The old historic Tulpehocken Reformed church, which 

 T served for thirty-seven years, is surrounded by trees I 

 •ordered from you over a quarter of a century ago The 

 parsonage grounds are filled with shade trees, dwarf pear 

 trees, plum trees, etc., I also received from you. I men- 

 tion this to show vou that I am not a stranger to your 

 ■nursery and also that I appreciate your promptness and 

 always giving very satisfactory stock.

A FAIR AVERAGE BUNCH OF A GRAPE 

 WAY ABOVE THE AVERAGE 



Grow More Grapes, and Still More 

 Grapes — and Start with Lovett's 

 Fruiting Age Vines 



Three years ago we foresaw the immense 

 increase in popularity which grape growing 

 would enjoy. Moreover, knowing the impa- 

 tience with which the average home gardener 

 waits for plants to come into bearing, we pre- 

 pared to provide plants of the kind which elimi- 

 nated the necessity of waiting either partially 

 or entirely. 



So we set aside several acres of the best 

 land in our Nurseries and planted them with 

 grape vines — of the good varieties, with thou- 

 sands of plants. For three years we have culti- 

 vated, pruned and judiciously handled these 

 plants until we are satisfied that no better 

 grape vines than these can be secured any- 

 where at any price. They are heavily rooted, 

 strongly caned specimen plants, some of which 

 have borne small clusters this past year in the 

 nursery row. Such plants as these can hardly 

 help but grow and bear fruit and we believe 

 most of them will bear small clusters for you 

 this coming summer and fall from plants set out 

 during April. 



We anticipate the pleasure of serving you.
