The exportation of our nursery products to Cuba, Porto Rico, the West Indies, South America, Mexico and 
other foreign countries has increased so rapidly during the past few years that we are warranted in saying 
that they ure well adapted to those sections and have given satisfaction. We include in this division such 
fruit trees and plants as are grown especially for tropical and subtropical countries. The periods of maturity 
vary more or less according to localities.

We have a large stock of pot-grown plants, which 
can be shipped and transplanted at any time. Plants 
grown in open ground do not transplant readily. This 
tree is perfectly hardy and does well along the South 
Atlantic and Gulf Coasts. It is a handsome evergreen, 
with bright, shiny leaves. Will do well on poor soil, 
but will make a more satisfactory growth when prop¬ 
erly fertilized. It is being planted in large quantities 
for producing the gum camphor of commerce. 
P. lucidum—YELLOW CATTLEY GUAVA. Fruit a 
little larger than the Red Cattley, sweeter and of 
much better quality. Very refreshing when eaten 
raw. Wonderfully prolific. The best of all for 
jellies.
