ANDORRA NURSERIES, 
HARDY NATIVE GRAPES. 
One of the most picturesque features of the Andorra Nurseries is our beautiful Grapery, 
covering four acres of ground. 
Situated on a sunny slope overlooking the Wissahickon Valley, whose varied scenery has 
so often been compared to that of the Shine, a visitor might easily imagine himself in a 
vineyard of the Old World. 
This Grapery is a trial ground for testing all the leading varieties, discarding each season 
the less valuable kinds for the newer and better ones.
