Filberts 
Corylus Avellana 
Barcelona is the leading variety; DuChilly, Daviana, 
are pollenators. 
These beautiful, ornamental bush-like trees make ex- 
cellent lawn specimens, either trimmed up like a tree 
or let sucker in many stems as a bush. Bear in 2 to 4 
years. 
Their habit of pushing their catkins (male flowers) in 
November, which hang on all winter, makes a unique 
winter attraction for those who can stay home from 
Florida. Then in March they burst into life with beau- 
tiful, minute, reddish female flowers in great profusion, 
while the catkins swell and enlarge in fluffy yellow ropes 
of pollen, which dangle in the breeze. They remind you 
that again spring is coming. Their nuts in the crinkled 
hoods or bonnets add charm all summer. 
Their maximum height being 15 to 20 feet makes them 
excellent for border planting, small yard planting, under 
trees, especially excellent for large informal hedges or 
screens. As they must be cross pollenated, never plant 
a single bush. In ordering, just ask for filberts or hybrid 
hazels and we'll send you the proper assortment. 
Hybrid Hazels 
C. Americana X Avellana 
These attractive crosses between the European filbert 
and Rush American hazel produce a nut as attractive as 
the filberts and grow as rapidly. Point of merit is—more 
hardy. We have several varieties by number. Order more 
than one for, like the filbert, must have two to pollenate. 
Will not pollenate with filbert as they bloom at different 
dates. Mix pollenators, do not plant separate.

Chestnuts 
Castanea Mollissima 
For years some effort has been made by individuals 
to select named varieties of this Chinese Chestnut (casta- 
nea mollissima). However, they come so nearly true from 
seed, we recommend the planting of seedlings for home 
and commercial use. A large field awaits the use of the 
Chestnut when the American people become convinced 
that they are resistant enough to the blight to make them 
worth while planting. The percentage of blighted trees 
in a given planting is so small as to be negligible. They are 
far superior to the Japanese variety. A true tree crop for 
the turkey grower. Why not plant your poultry fields and 
gain with food and shade? Bears 3 to 5 years.
