Duncan. Of large size; peel tough and smooth; 
quality very best; regular old-fashioned Grape¬ 
fruit flavor. Strong grower and regular and pro¬ 
lific bearer. We recommend this variety without 
the slightest hesitation as being one of the finest, 
also one of the hardiest varieties. Hangs on trees 
until late spring or early summer. 
Hall (Hall’s Silver Cluster). Medium to large, 
nearly round. Heavy bearer, large bunches. 
Marsh Seedless. Large, slightly flattened; 
skin smooth; heavy, juicy, and of excellent 
quality. Nominally seedless. Desirable. 
Pernambuco. A large Grapefruit with very smooth, 
light-colored skin; of excellent quality and handsome ap¬ 
pearance. It ripens late and hangs on the trees well. 
Tree is a good bearer. Imported from Brazil by the 
United States Department of Agriculture, some years ago. 
Triumph. Medium size; skin smooth; heavy, juicy, 
well-flavored; less bitter than some others. A strong 
grower; prolific. This is the earliest variety of Grapefruit 
we have, and for home use and for some markets it is 
excellent. It cannot be recommended for planting in the 
colder sections, as the tree is tender. Fruit is not large 
enough to suit many growers. 
KUMQUATS 
The Kumquat is the smallest of the citrus fruits in 
general cultivation in this country. Usually the plants 
are called bushes, for they do not make ^rees. The 
plant grows to a height of io to 12 feet, with a spread of 
branches about equal to its height. The bright, dark 
green leaves and deep golden yellow fruits make a very 
pleasing combination of color. The flowers are small, 
sweet scented, and appear in June on the shoots produced 
earlier in the same season. The fruit ripens during the 
fall and winter, beginning with the month of November. 
As an ornamental alone, it is not surpassed by any 
other evergreen shrub with which we are acquainted. 
In point of hardiness, the Kumquat ranks with the 
Satsuma orange. It will withstand temperatures of 
15 degrees Fahrenheit and even lower. Since its flowers 
are produced on the spring wood, the trees will produce 
flowers and fruit even though they may have been cut 
back during the winter. In gathering the fruit, as we 
recommend it to be gathered, the trees are given consider¬ 
able pruning each season; this appears to be very bene¬ 
ficial and helps in the production of heavy crops each year.

Pomelo, 
of 
the 
famous 
variety 
waxy, 
McCarty. 
Indian River strain, is a late-maturing 
of unsurpassed quality. The fruit is 
yellow in color, of large size, packing 48 to 64 
to the box. The tree is vigorous, healthy and 
prolific. The striking peculiarity of McCarty 
is that the fruit is borne, not in bunches, but 
singly, and well distributed over the tree. The 
flavor is a perfect blending of sweet, acid and 
bitterness, the true Pomelo flavor. The flesh is 
melting, free from fiber and rag; seeds about 
the usual number.
