fruit, from early summer to late fall.

duces fruit that is dark red all the way 
through. Fine for jams, jellies and sauce, 
either when cooked alone or mixed with 
other apples. The tree is very sturdy 
and completely hardy for the north. It 
bears when real young, usually the sec¬ 
ond or third year after planting. A new 
handsome ornamental tree, with its 
beautiful red flowers early in the spring. 
Strong, one-year-old trees, 55c each; 
$5.00 per 10.

(Erica Darleyensis)

markable fact about this plant is that it 
blooms during late winter. Starts blooming

row. (With protection will bloom earlier.) 
Produces small, rosy pink flowers. 
Strong, No. 1 plants

Imagine, if you can, a full grown rose bush small enough 
to place beneath a quart cup. The tiny buds are perfectly 
formed, opening into miniature double rose-pink flowers about 
the size of a marble. May be raised as a pot-plant or grown 
outside in the rock garden. Widely used for an edging along 
walks and flower beds. Perfectly hardy. Blooms all summer 
outdoors and the year around in the house.
