JAPAN 
PERSIMMONS 
Of the summer to winter fruits culti¬ 
vated in the South, few are more attrac¬ 
tive than Japan Persimmons. The most 
valuable are included in our list. The 
fruits are medium to large, sweet, pala¬ 
table, and the trees should be in all fruit- 
gardens. Commercial plantings have been 
profitable, and the fruit-markets of the 
country have not yet been supplied. These 
fruits, used fresh, are delicious, and equally 
so in sherbets, creams, and other frozen 
mixtures. 
Fuyugaki. One of the best. Oblate, medium 
to large; deep red skin; light flesh, non¬ 
astringent, very sweet and may be used 
while still hard; seedless. Perhaps the very 
best shipper and keeper. Should be in all 
plantings. September, October. 
Gailey. Small, oblate-conical; dull red; flesh 
dark about the seeds, firm, juicy. Pro¬ 
duces an abundance of staminate flowers 
for pollenizing other sorts. Valuable in 
commercial and home orchards. 
Hachiya. Very large and showy; brilliant red 
skin; sweet, deep yellow flesh, astringent 
until ripe. 
Okame. Large, oblate; orange-yellow to 
carmine skin; flesh light and non-astringent 
when ripe, light brown around seeds, 
quality fine. Midseason to late. 
Tane-Nashi. Large to very large, roundish 
conical, very attractive; skin light yellow, 
changing to bright red; flesh yellow, of 
finest quality; seedless. Prolific, bearing 
quite young. The finest commercial sort 
and most popular for home use. 
Triumph. Medium size, tomato-shaped; skin 
red; flesh yellow, with a few seeds, finest 
quality. Midseason to very late.

GRAPES 
The group of Muscadine Grapes is well 
and favorably known throughout the 
East and Southeast. For the Southeast, 
in particular, many sorts of the Bunch 
Grapes do not seem to be well adapted, 
but of those which are successful here we 
have long produced and distributed the 
following list: 
MUSCADINE GRAPES 
Flowers. Large, purplish fruit; sweet, excel¬ 
lent. August, September.
