Deciduous Fruits 
MULBERRIES, continued 
Stubbs. A form of the native red Mul¬ 
berry, discovered in Laurens county, Georgia, 
some years ago. Large, black, vinous; excel¬ 
lent; very prolific. The fruit which is from 
i Yz to 2 inches long, is greatly superior to that 
produced by any of the cultivated varieties. 
Tree vigorous and handsome. 
Townsend. A new variety, which on ac¬ 
count of its extreme earliness we have deemed 
worthy of propagation. Berries of medium size 
and fair quality. Brought to our attention by 
one of our employees of that name, on whose 
place it has been growing for years. Should be 
planted where birds are apt to ruin other early 
fruits. March and April. 
Multicaulis (Morns multicaulis). The Silk¬ 
worm Tree. A very vigorous tree, extensively 
used for purposes of propagation, for shade 
and for feeding silkworms.

The Loquat is a strik¬ 
ingly handsome, large-leaved, 
evergreen tree adapted to the 
Gulf Coast country and more 
tropical locations. The leaves 
are large, dark green and 
rough ; the young shoots 
woolly. A compact grower, 
and forms a well - rounded 
head. Very desirable as an 
ornamental—adds a tropical 
touch to the grounds. 
Nor is it desirable as an 
ornamental only, for its fruit, 
which is about the size of a 
Wild Goose plum, oblong, 
bright yellow, subacid, has 
a very agreeable flavor and is highly prized for cooking; makes a most excellent jelly. 
The white blossoms, borne in spikes, come during the winter months; consequently, while 
trees are quite hardy all along the Gulf Coast, fruit can be counted on only in sections 
comparatively exempt from severe cold. 
Loquat 
GUAVA 
Cattley. One of the hardiest Guavas. Avery handsome evergreen shrub, with glossy, 
camellia-like leaves. Produces in immense quantities small red fruits, about an inch in 
diameter. Makes a very fine jelly. Can be grown throughout Florida and all along the Gulf 
Coast country, as well as in more tropical sections. Price, 1 to 2 ft., 35 cts. each, $3 for 10. 
Yellow Chinese. Very similar in growth, hardiness and size of fruit to Cattley. Fruit, 
instead of being red-fleshed, is yellow. Price, 6- to 12-inch plants, 25 cts. each, $2 for 10.
