CULTIVATED LARGE-FRUITED 
erries 
The supreme achievement of skilled 
horticulturists who hove worked for years 
to improve our most luscious native fruit. 
The question invariably asked by those 
whose interest has been aroused is: "Are 
these new Blueberries hard to grow?" The 
answer instantly and truthfully given is 
"No, they are not in the leas’t hard to 
grow." In bloom they are attractive, and 
in fall the green foliage turns into beau¬ 
tiful shades of red and crimson. Blue¬ 
berries are acid-soil plants. This acid 
condition is easily brought about by simple prepar¬ 
ation of the soil—with woods soil, oak leaves, peat 
or aluminum sulphate. The new, named varieties 
of cultivated Blueberries are not self-fertile. A 
bush grown by itself will not bear fruit, but where 
six or more plants are grown in close proximity, 
perfect fertilization of the blossoms takes place, 
and abundant crops of huge, luscious berries result. 
Consequently our Blueberries are sold in units of 
six plants (mixed varieties) or in blocks of 24 
plants or more (mixed varieties) . Orders for single 
plants will positively not be accepted for reasons 
noted obove. 
2-year size, $7.50 per unit of 6 plants, 24 plants or 
over, $1.10 per plant. All plants are sent with ball of 
earth. Cultural hints with each order. 
NEW HARDY SEEDLESS 
Each $1.25 
After years of experimentation and cross¬ 
breeding, a perfectly hardy, seedless Grape has 
been developed. The first of a new race of 
Grapes that should eventually replace the 
common large-seeded varieties for table use. 
It is of the Concord type, but slightly smaller, 
blue-black in color, and possesses the same 
fine flavor found in the Concord Grape. This 
is the first year they have been offered and as 
the stock is very scarce we cannot allow more 
than six plants to o customer. Field-grown 
Seedless Concord 
EVERBEARING LEMON 
An everbearing Lemon that can be as easily 
grown in a pot as a Geranium, and which pro¬ 
duces fruit weighing from one to three pounds 
each. These enormous fruits are borne on small 
plants one to two feet high, growing in pots and 
New Hardy Seedless Grape bear continually. The fruits are very orna¬ 
mental and may be used for lemonade and cul¬ 
inary purposes. Flowers are as fragrant as orange blossoms which 
they somewhat resemble. They are excellent when grown in tubs 
for porch or terrace decoration, and look most attractive all winter 
in a sunny window. CKving to quarantines, we do not ship Lemon 
plants to Alabama, Arizona, California, Florida, Georgia, Louis¬ 
iana, Mississippi, Texas, and Puerto Rico. Dozen $3.00

FOR TERRACE OR LIVING ROOM 
DECORATION 
Distinctive — Decorative — Practical 
These authentic, trained Espalier Fruit Trees are grown for us by a Euro¬ 
pean-trained specialist. They are grafted on the proper stocks, especially 
suited to Espalier work. They have been fully trained so that the forms 
can be maintained by semi-annual pruning. 
Varieties of Fruit Offered: 
These varieties have been decided upon by us as the most practical and 
satisfactory for Espalier work, and for high quality fruit. 
APPLES: Delicious, McIntosh, Baldwin. 
PEARS: Bartlett, Clapp's Favorite, Beurre d'Anjou, Seckel, Wilder. 
The illustration below shows a tree with five leaders or branches. We 
find that for all practical purposes in this country it is best to grow trees 
with not over three branches. Reflected heat from walls against which 
they are growing is great and therefore it is better not to hove too many 
to support on a single root. When four or six arms are required we rec¬ 
ommend the use of two trees instead of one. 
Double-Branched Trees Each $12.00 
Triple-Branched Trees Each $15.00 
MAGNOLIA FIGS 
The Magnolia Fig is particularly adapted to pot culture. As a 
pot or tub plant, it is very ornamental either indoors or outdoors, 
and is an abundant bearer of fruit. It will winter safely in a cool 
cellar, or it can be allowed to harden off with a few fall frosts and 
then be brought indoors for growing during the winter. If the top 
is frozen it can be cut to the ground, and when it begins growing, 
it will produce fruit on the new wood. It is for pot or tub culture 
that we particularly recommend this Fig. When grown in the open 
ground, it will develop a crop of fruit as far north as Maryland. 
Plants bear the first year. The fruit is very sweet and delicious; 
of good size; with flesh that is firm and meaty, and of very fine 
quality. Each $0.75, Doz. $7.50
