CRAB APPLES 
ADAM—A large red crab. Commences to fruit at three yars old. 
A good bearer. Very hardy. 
AMUR—Our hardiest red crab, bearing tremendous loads of flat¬ 
fish fruit, reddish inside as well as out, so that it makes the 
reddest jelly of all. A strong upright grower, making a hand¬ 
some tree. . 
FLORENCE—A prolific bearer of large, highly colored crabs, ex¬ 
cellent for jelly, and particularly good for canning, as the 
skin practically melts away. 
DAUPHIN—The earliest crab we have ever seen, as trees often 
commence to bear at two years old. The fruit is small, really 
a baby Yellow Transparent, good to eat, and grand to can, 
but the kiddies will clean off the tree before you get a chance 
to can any. Absolutely hardy, and prolific. 
DOLGO—A beautiful ornamental, as well as a superb jelly crab. 
Brilliant scarlet conical fruit, ripening August to September. 
GARNET—Red jelly crab, later than Amur. Limited quantity this 
year. 
MECCA—Large hardy crab.
