^ The Satsuma orange bears the reputation of being the hardietet of 
oatSUma all edible oranges. The tree is of a spreading and drooping habit 
and bears fruit at any early age. 
The fruit is of medium size and rather flat in shape and deep orange in color. 
Flesh is fine grained, tender, sweet, delicious and so few seeds are ever found 
that it is termed seedless. 
This is undoubtedly one of the best of the Mandarin family and on account 
of its heavy bearing qualities, its early ripening and its many other attractive 
features, should be found in all home grounds. Ripens October to December, 
-pi w j M l Was discovered by A. C. Thompson, of 
Inomson Improved INavel Duarte, Los Angeles county, California. It 
is a very fine fruit of high quality and fine appearance. It is supposed by- 
orange growers to be a natural variation of the Washington Navel. How- 
over, in some localities, chiefly where planted for family use, it is preferred 
to the Washington Navel. 
Its time of ripening is November to January. 
xri • I Is the leading summer orange and very similar to the paper 
Valencia Late rind St. Michael in color and texture. The fruit is large, 
oblong, firm and juicy, with very little rag. Ripens late, reaching the markets 
when all other varieties are gone, thus commanding the best of prices. 
Valencia Late should be planted only in sections that are practically free 
from frosts. 
Fruit ripens in June but will remain on the tree in good condition as late 
as September. 
-.jrr - . mi This, the leader of all California oranges, was im- 
Washington INavel ported from Bahia, Brazil, in the year 1870, by Mr. 
W. Sanders, of the Department of Agriculture at Washington. It is said to de¬ 
rive its name from the fact that it was first grown in Washington and also 
from the peculiar formation of the blossom end of the fruit. 
The more this variety has been cultivated and exhibited the more popular 
it has become until now it is classed as the queen among oranges, and is more 
widely grown than any other variety. 
The tree is a strong rapid grower and a prolific bearer. The fruit is medium 
to large, juicy, possessing a fine flavor and so few seeds are ever discovered 
that it is termed as seedless.
