DUNCAN POMELO 
POMELO (Grape Fruit) 
In recent years the Grape Fruit has attained wonderful and wide-spread popularity as a 
dessert fruit, and as a consequence the owners of groves of it have reaped rich rewards. Not¬ 
withstanding the enormously increasing supply, prices for the fruit continue very high and 
its popularity keeps on growing. This season we have increased our list of varieties, which 
now includes some of the most prominent and desirable kinds. 
DUNCAN. Of large size; peel tough and 
smooth. Quality very best; regular old-fashioned 
Grape Fruit flavor. Strong grower and regular 
and prolific bearer. We recommend this variety 
without the slightest hesitation as being one of the 
finest; also one of the hardiest varieties.

flattened; skin very smooth; heavy, juicy, and of 
excellent quality. Nominally seedless, it gener¬ 
ally has a limited number of seeds. Desirable.

ance. Pulp rose-colored and of excellent quality.
