SEIBOLD*S JAPAN WALNUTS. 



*JUGIiANS SIEBOIiDI.— This species Is found growing wild in the mountains of northern 

 Japan, and Is, without doubt, as hardy as an oak. The leaves are of Immense size, and the nuts, which are 

 produced in great abundance, grow In clusters of fifteen or twenty; have a shell thicker than the English 



walnut, but not so thick as the black walnut. The meat Is sweet, 

 of the very best quality; flavor like a butternut, but less oily, and 

 much superior. The trees grow with great vigor, assuming a very 

 handsome form and need no pruning; mature early; bear 

 young, and are more regular and productive than the English 

 \\ alnut; having an abundance of flbrous roots it tranplants as safely 

 as an apple tree. No tree on our grounds has attracted more attention 

 than the Japan Walnut. Three to 5 ft. ea., 50c; doz., $5.00; Small ea., 

 30c; doz., $3.00. 



*Juglan8 Max. Cordiformis.— This Is also a Jap- 

 anese species of walnut, yet little known, resembling In some re- 

 spects J. Sieholdi, but differing considerably in form of nuts, which 

 are broad, slightly flattened, with acute points at both extremetles. 



JUGLANS Max. Cordiformis. smooth and somewhat like our Shellbark hickory. It is not so 

 strong a grower as the other species. Two to 3 ft., ea., 50c; doz., $5.00. Small, ea., 30c; doz., $3.00.
