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



A friendly hint to those 

 who are reluctant to choose 



When in doubt what to 

 choose, a liberal percent- 

 age of gardeners either 

 don't choose at all or pre- 

 fer to let "the other 

 fellow" do it for 

 them. Now, for 

 obvious reasons we 

 do want to have a j| 

 grape arbor form a mm 

 part of every home 

 garden. .Also, we 

 are willing to sug- 

 gest varieties that 

 we feel sure will "make 

 good" and win us more 

 friends in form of perma- 

 nent customers. Here is 

 our suggestion for a home 

 grapevine plantation that 

 will do all the descriptions 

 of plants and varieties will cause you 

 to hope for: 



2 Caco (See front cover and page 3) 

 2 Moore's Early (Described on 

 page 6) 



2 Concord (See on opposite page) 

 2 Diamond (Refer to page 5) 

 2 Champagne (Described below) 



2 strong, 2-year-old vines of 

 each of the 5 sorts, for $5.00; 

 or 



10 fruiting age vines (2 of each 

 kind) for $10.00. 



The above collection covers a long 

 season of bearing and holds sorts of 

 special usefulness for many different 

 purposes — jams, jellies, grape juice, 

 etc. Planted 8 feet apart, they will 

 nicely cover a trellis 8o feet long or a 

 double pergola, 40 feet long. Every 

 sort is a peer in its class. They thrive 

 in practically all parts of the country. 

 And by starting with our heavy fruit- 

 ing age vines (see pp. 3 and 7) you 

 steal a march on Father Time. 



Other Standard Varieties of Grapes 



AGAWAM — Deep red, almost maroon. Large, 

 loose bunch; berries large, meaty, with rich aro- 

 matic flavor. Ripens a little after Concord. 1 year, 

 each, 40c; dozen, $4.00. 2 years, each, 50c; 

 dozen, $5.00. Heavy fruiting age vines, each, 

 $1.00; dozen, $10.00. 



BRIGHTON — Until the introduction of Caco, 

 this was regarded as the highest in quality of all 

 hardy grapes. The medium-sized berries are wine- 

 red, and the bunches run somewhat larger than those 

 of Caco. Ripens in midseason. 1 year, each, 40c. ; 

 dozen, $4.00. 2 years, each, 50c; dozen, $5.00. 

 Heavy fruiting age vines, each, $1.00; dozen, 

 $10.00. 



CHAMPAGNE — A 

 SUPERB QUALITY 

 GRAPE RIPENING 

 EARLY. 



CHAMPAGNE — An exceptionally prolific bear- 

 er of amber colored clusters. Because of its rather 

 thin skin it is particularly useful for home gardens. 

 Of strong constitution, it is practically immune to 

 attack of fungus diseases and it has proven so hardy 

 everywhere that it has never been known to winter kill. 



It bears immense crops of medium size bunches, 

 while the individual berries are very large. The 

 quality is exceptionally high, the flavor very sweet 

 and sugary — altogether it is an ideal sort for mak- 

 ing a delicious wine or grape juice. It also has few 

 equals as a table variety. See illustration of a typical 

 cluster above. 1 year, each, 50c; dozen, $5.00; 

 100, $35.00; 2 years, each, 75c; dozen, $7.50; 

 100, $50.00. Heavy- fruiting age vines, each, 

 $1.50; dozen, $15.00.
