LARGE-FRUITED LEMON 
PONDEROSA 
Nothing that has ever been brought to our notice in the 
plant line has caused half the commotion that this wonder¬ 
ful Lemon has. It is a true everbearing variety. On a 
plant six feet high no less than eighty-nine of these pon¬ 
derous lemons were growing at one time. It was a beauti¬ 
ful sight. The tree was blooming, and at the same time 
had fruit in all stages of development, from the size of a 
pea up to the ripe fruit. Fruit weighing over four pounds 
has been taken from this tree. The lemons have very 
thin rind for such large fruit. It is the juiciest of all 
lemons, makes delicious lemonade, and for culinary pur¬ 
poses cannot be excelled. Ponderosa Lemon is sure 
to become popular when it is known. It fruits when quite 
small, and makes a lovely house plant. Everybody can 
grow their own lemons. Thrifty young plants, each 25 
cents; two for 40 cents. 
PALMS 
Palms will do well at a window where there is little or 
no direct sunshine. A regular, but not excessive, supply 
of water and a fair light are all the plants demand during 
the cool season. The soil should be a substantial fibery 
loam. A daily syringing of the leaves is an advantage, 
but in winter once a week is sufficient. If kept in a living- 
room with dry furnace heat, da.ly syringing or spraying 
the leaves is advisable. We here offer plants of the hand¬ 
somest and most reliable species. First size, eighteen to 
twenty inches high. Second size, twelve inches high. 
Third size, strong plants from 3-inch pots.
