WALNUTS 
English Walnuts are not grown in the Lower South to the extent they are farther north 
and on the Pacific slope, and, generally speaking, are not considered as reliable here as there. 
The Japan Walnut has, however, fruited abundantly in many sections throughout Florida and 
the Gulf coast region, and seems to be thoroughly adapted to our climate. 
ENGLISH. The well-known Madeira Nut of 
the shops. In regions where it is adapted, a fine, 
lofty tree, with a spreading head, bearing crops of 
excellent nuts enclosed, like our native Black 
Walnut, in a simple husk. Our trees are grown 
from seed, the thinnest-shelled nuts to be had 
being secured for this purpose. 
JAPAN. Produces in abundance nuts consid¬ 
erably larger than the common Hickory Nut, 
which are borne in clusters of 15 to 20. The shell 
is thicker than the shell of the English Walnut, 
which in a general way it resembles, but is not as 
thick as that of the Black Walnut. The meat is 
sweet, of good quality, and can be removed en¬ 
tire. The tree grows rapidly, and attains a very 
large size, with a magnificent spreading top. 
The leaves are of immense size, of a charming 
shade of green, and very handsome. We have 
fruited this variety on our grounds for several years 
past, and are annually more and more impressed 
with the value of the tree, both for its nuts and as 
an ornamental. 
ALMONDS 
We do not recommend this nut for extensive planting in this section of country, as 
Almonds are not certain bearers this far South. We raise a few trees of them, however, which 
are mostly in demand for garden planting, and for filling out collections. We offer two of 
the finest varieties, viz., SULTANA and PRINCESS, the soft-shelled Almonds of commerce.
