GARDEN 

 LEMON. 



(See Cut.)- tomato egg plant. 



Highly praised wherever it is tried It resembles the Vine 



Peach in manner of 

 growth, but is distinct in 

 that the unripe fruit is 

 striped, with very dark 

 green, nearly black, 

 while the Vine Peach is 

 plain green, and when 

 ripe is not russeted like 

 the Garden Lemon. Fruit 

 is of shape shown in illus- 

 tration and is somewhat 

 smaller than the Vine 

 Peach. It has a thinner 

 flesh and has a most de- 

 cidedly acid flavor, thus 

 dispensing with the 

 sliced lemons which are 

 so important in putting up 

 the Vine Peach. Culti- 

 vate similar to the Musk 

 Melon. Pkt. 5c. 



Do not fail to try both the Garden Lemon and Vine 

 Peach. A packet of each for only IP cents.
