AMERICAN WONDER LEMON. 



THE LARGEST EDIBLE LEMON IN THE WORLD. 



Actual Weight, Two and One-half Pounds. 



THIS is one of the most extraordinary 

 novelties that has been sent out in 

 many years. Our illustration, taken 

 from a photograph much reduced 

 in size, gives an idea of the fruit. Single 

 specimens have been taken from the 

 trees weighing over three pounds each. In 

 addition to its fruit-bearing qualities, it 

 makes a very handsome specimen plant 

 for house culture. The dark-green foli- 

 age is very large, and the handsome, 

 pure white, waxy flowers, with yellow- 

 stamens, are nearly as large as Tuberose 

 blooms, and as fragrant as orange blos- 

 soms, which they greatly resemble. The 

 lemons have a very thin rind for such 

 large fruit, and are full of rich acid 

 juice, and are equal to eight or ten ordi- 

 nary Lemons. It makes delicious lem- 

 onade, and for every purpose that the 

 lemon is useful it has no equal. The 

 plants that we will send you will produce 

 their magnificent large fruits under ordi- 

 nary cultivation the second year, and 

 wall prove a source of genuine delight. 

 This is certainly a wonderful novelty, 

 and one of the' greatest we have ever 

 had anything to do w'ith. Plant it in 

 ordinary soil, in a pot or tub, and it will 

 make a most interesting and valuable 

 plant, not only ornamental but useful, 

 as it will bear each season a fine crop of 

 these superb Lemons. Very hardy.
