Price List of Filbert Trees 
Our trees are all propagated from the ORIGINAL BARCELONA MOTHER TREE 
WHICH STILL STANDS ON OUR GROUNDS. Our prices for these trees are very 
reasonable. When you make comparison, keep quality and not price in mind. YOU 
CANNOT GET BETTER TREES THAN OURS. 
WHY TRANSPLANTED LAYER PLANTS ARE BEST 
Perpetuation of a species by layers is a natural method. Limbs bent to the 
ground by wind or storm take root. While natural grafts do occur, they are freaks 
of nature. LAYER GROWTHS ARE TRUE TO VARIETY FROM ROOT TO TOP 
and if anything happens to the top the root-crown will soon replace the damage by 
new sprouts. Graftage practiced on seedlings subjects the graft to all the weaknesses 
of the root and the danger of worthless type sprouts from below the graft union. 
An attempt is being made to introduce grafted filberts, supposed to be suckerless. 
This is frankly an experiment and since scientists of Horticultural practices well 
know that any tree growing directly on its OWN ROOTS is healthier, longer lived 
and in every way more profitable, cautious planters will not go contrary to the time 
tested profitable methods, unless they have money and years of time to play with 
experimentation. European growers with the experience of centuries use only layer 
trees; groves 250 years old are still producing nuts in Italy. OUR ORIGINAL 
STRAIN OF TRANSPLANTED BARCELONA FROM LAYERS IS BEST FOR 
YOUR PLANTING.

Barcelona. The best commercial vari¬ 
ety; introduced and named by Felix Gil- 
let. Our plants are therefore genuine, 
being direct from the original mother 
tree. Its value for the grower of market 
nuts lies in its heavy yield, large size, 
good appearance, strong growth and 
disease resistance. The nuts are not re¬ 
tained in the husks. All drop to the 
ground over a period of three weeks 
during September. One inch broad by 
3/4-inch thick. Round or nearly so, 
color brown, bright and handsome. 
Borne singly and in clusters of two to 
six. Will bear well in part shade. 
^DuChilly. Large, over 1 inch long by 
3/4-inch broad, flattened. Excellent 
quality, good bearer. It pollenizes Bar¬ 
celona and is pollenized by Barcelona, 
Nottingham and Daviana.
