HOUSANDS of horticulturists in the coast region of the South Atlantic and Gulf 
^ States who have come to look upon the Annual Catalogue of the Glen St. Mary 
Nurseries as a year-book of progress and manual of reference will, we are con¬ 
fident, appreciate this edition, issued at the beginning of our thirteenth season. 
No effort has been spared to make the descriptions accurate and intelligible, the 
cultural information recent and full, and the illustrations true to the objects 
represented. 
Our stock has been largely increased the past year, and numerous important 
additions have been made. We would call especial attention to the full line of Citrus fruits which 
we now offer for the first time. 
It is our purpose to maintain prices as low as the production of first-class stock will permit. 
As a rule, prices this season are lower than last. A very great increase in the quantity pro¬ 
duced has enabled us to materially reduce the price of Pear, Plum, Persimmon and Satsuma 
Orange trees. Intending purchasers will find it to their advantage to give us the opportunity to 
furnish estimates upon their lists. 
Part I. and Part II. of this Catalogue are devoted to descriptive lists and cultural suggestions, 
and have not been encumbered with prices and business information. The latter will be found in 
Part III., which contains a table giving prices on all varieties offered in different sizes and quanti¬ 
ties, together with full information for purchasers, order sheet, etc. 
With local conditions of soil and climate peculiarly favorable to propagation and growth, a 
long season enables us to produce stock of superior quality, which has given exceptional satisfaction 
wherever planted throughout the United States. 
We make a specialty of trees and plants for that great region of the Lower South extending 
from Florida to Texas, to all sections of which our products go. For years we have made the 
fruits of this region a study, planting extensive orchards as well as nurseries. In our experimental 
planting, we have been fortunate in a location combining in a remarkable degree the natural 
conditions required by the wide range of varieties grown in the different sections of this region.
