 from the F"ar East. We oflTer now, in limited quantities, strong plants on own 

 roots, grown from fruiting wood, which will commence to bear at once. As _ a 

 pot or tiib plant, it isextremelv valuable, either indoors or outside. It will 

 winter safely in an ordinary cellar, or it can be allowed to harden off with a few 

 frosts in the early Fall and then brought indoors for growing during the Winter. 

 It will produce three crops in a season. The fruit is delicious beyond descrip- 

 tion,being large and sweet and almost seedless; especially when eaten fresh from 

 the tree. This is one of the rare plants that you should not miss getting.
