BRAZILIAN 
MELON FRUIT 
As an ornamental plant it lias few 
equals, its splendid bushy habit, 
healthy growth and charniinK foliage 
giving it tlie preference over many of 
the weaker and more delicate class. 
It also furnishes a most desirable 
«gg-shapcd, yellowish-orange colored 
fruit, which hangs pendent in clus- 
ters just below the beautiful foliage. 
This fruit is of the most delightful 
flavor, having a slightly smb-acid 
taste, entirely different from anyother 
fruit we are acquainted with. For 
«ating out of the hand, selicint or 
making into preserves, it is simply 
delicious, and its lovely appearance 
in a dish on a table can only be 
equaled by the finest tropical fruits.

Best for House Culture 
One of the grandest pot plants for flowering we have 
ever seen, and being useful as well as ornamental, 
should be grown by everyone. It is a very dwarf variety, 
and blossoms and fruits freely when only 12 or IS inchea 
high. The delicately scented blossoms are produced in 
profusion. The fruit is quite small, being only alKJut 
one-half the si?,e of the ordinary orange, but 's very 
sweet and delicious. For pot culture it is one of the 
most novel and interesting plants of late introduction. 
It blooms freely during the entire season, and one plant 
will scent a whole room. The stock we ofler is strong 
and thrifty. Each, 25c, postpaid.

for house culture. The 
leaves are of a deep glossy 
green like the Otaheite 
Orange, are easily kept 
clean and bright, rendering 
the plant neat and attrac- 
tive at all times. In addi- 
tion to this, its waiy white, 
fragrant blossoms, produced 
in clusters, followed by .arge 
showy fruit, make this plant 
at all times beautiful as well 
as useful. The fruit is very 
large, of fine flavor, and su- 
perior to the ordinary lemons 
of commerce in every partic- 
ular. Vou will make no 
mistake in ordering this 
most beautiful plant, as it is 
valuable alike as an orna- 
mental plant or a fruit pro- 
ducing plant. 
We have grown and sold 
this valuable plant for sev- 
eral years and have never 
received a single complaint 
from a customer who pur- 
chased it. It is beyond 
doubt, one of the very finest 
plants for house culture ever 
introduced. Each, 2 5e, 
postpaid.
