SONDEREGGER'S 
ASSORTMENT THE BEST 
After more than 50 years of trying literally 
hundreds of varieties in the Sonderegger 
test field, eliminating all varieties that did 
not come up to expectations the present list 
includes the very best in each color and time 
of ripening. You will be safe when you 
select from this assortment. 
Niagara, White 
ket growers 
seem to agree that Niagara is perhaps 
the most valuable of all white grapes. Its 
clusters are large, and handsome, com¬ 
pactly filled with large berries having 
thin but tough skin. When fully ripe 
they are pale yellow with white bloom. 
Slightly pulpy, tender, sweet with a de¬ 
lightfully aromatic flavor peculiarly its 
own, and agreeable to most tastes. Vine 
is remarkably vigorous and productive. 
Ripens with Concord, and hardy as far 
north as Concord, also in the South. I 
have had reports of splendid results in 
commercial plantings in Florida, and at 
the same time it is perfectly hardy any¬ 
where in the Eastern states and the 
Middle West. Fine, strong plants, 2 years 
old. No. 1, 20c each; 3 for 50c; 10 for $1.40, 
25 for $2.90; prepaid. 
SOUTHERN AND 
HOTHOUSE GRAPES 
Wherever the ground freezes these grapes 
are not hardy unless covered with dirt 
and manure over winter. In the Middle 
West and North these grapes are called 
‘‘Hothouse Grapes,” and are planted in 
barrels or large tubs to be moved indoors 
over winter. 
Fredonia, Black ? | b *1 e 
Grape. This is the finest early 
black grape of the hardy class. 
Fredonia is as hardy as Concord. 
The berries are of large size, black 
with blue bloom, and they ripen 
evenly. Fredonia has a most deli¬ 
cious flavor, rarely found in grapes. 
I recommend Fredonia, and I suggest that 
you include a few of them in your plant¬ 
ing. My Fredonias are of the true orig¬ 
inal stock. Extra fine 2-year No. 1 plants, 
25c each; 3 for 65c; 10 for $1.85; 25 plants 
for $4.20; prepaid. 
Thompson's Seedless S'^itania 
Blanche. 
Vine an enormous bearer and very rapid 
grower; bunches very large, berries 
greenish yellow, firm, oval and seedless. 
Skin thin. Most of the seedless raisins 
are made from this variety, and are in 
strong demand. Thompson’s Seedless is 
an early shipping grape, ripening in 
August. Largely grown in the Pacific 
states and in the South. In the North 
it can be grown in tubs, and will bear 
well. Can be kept in a cool cellar over 
winter. Nice 2-year-old No. 1 plants, 25c 
each; 3 for 60c; 10 for $1.80; 25 for $3.85; 
prepaid. 
Coco grand table grape. A fancy 
grape of finest quality. Berries 
extra large, sweet, juicy, with a most 
pleasing flavor. Coming in well-shaped 
clusters of light red or amber color it is 
a most attractive looking fruit. Caco is 
perfectly hardy everywhere except the 
extreme North where it needs a little 
winter protection. The berries become 
sweet two weeks before they color up. 
Caco should be in every garden, it pro¬ 
duces well, and there is nothing to take 
its place for good eating grapes. 2-year- 
old No. 1 fine plants, 25c each'; 3 for 
10 for $1.85; 25 for postpaid. 
Fredonia 
Fancy 
Table-Grape 
Trio 
Plrmno This is the grape 
r lame i oKay you find in fruit 
markets everywhere all through the win¬ 
ter. Berry large, pale red, covered with 
a bluish bloom. Flesh firm and sweet. In 
great demand, and one of the best known 
market grapes. Ripens in September. 
Grown in tubs, and moved indoors for 
winter protection this grape can be grown 
in the Middle West and in the North, 
but not hardy without this care. 2-year- 
old No. 1 plants, 25c each; 3 for 60c; 10 for 
$1.80; 25 for $3.85‘ prepaid. 
Grape. This is 
my earliest white grape. A fancy variety 
with its sweet and juicy berries. It is a 
hardy grape, as hardy as Concord, and 
is a healthy grower. Berries good sized, 
sweet, juicy and of fine flavor. Portland 
is also a good producer. Portland and 
the other fancy varieties I am listing in 
this column will be the pride of your gar¬ 
den. Nice, strong 2-year-old No. 1 plants, 
25c each; 3 for 65c; 10 for $1.80; 25 for 
$4.00; prepaid.

Sonderegger’s 2-year No. 1 Grapes begin 
to hear within a year. They are bred for 
special hardiness and unsurpassed pro¬ 
ductiveness. 
PLANTING INSTRUCTIONS 
For the first summer allow all vines to grow, but tie them up to a pole if you are 
not building a wire fence or trellis until the second year. The sketch at the right 
shows the first year’s growth tied to the lowest wire as the main vine. Side branches 
for bearing tied verticaily to the upper wires. These branches produce the fruit. 
Keep them cut off Just at the height of the trellis, and early every spring cut out' 
the branch that bore the previous year, making the cut within an inch from the main 
vine, and allowing a new sprout of previous year's growth to grow in.
