Ornamental Fruits 
Edible Fruits Which Lend a Striking Beauty to the Landscape 
and are a Distinct Satisfaction to the Palate 
i ° Foliage is typically gray with a covering of sil- 
Buffalo Berries very brown pubescence of Metallic lustre. In late 
August we find the stems covered with scarlet fruits the size of Currants. 
In spite of their sour slightly acid taste they are edible, being highly valued 
for jams and jellies. The Indians used them extensively preserving them by 
drying. Plant several specimens to be sure of securing both types of blossoms 
for thorough pollenization. Price 18 inch plants 25c 
each—5 for $1.00 postpaid. 
A clean looking round headed 
Black Haw shrub. Attractive pure white 
May flowers give place to bunches of pink fruits

boyhood days and now considered an excellent 
medium large shrub for general landscape planting.

Ornamental Fruits are valuable because they 
produce not only edible fruits but are most at- 
tractive to birds. 
These fruit trees and shrubs will furnish the 
desired landscape effect just as well as other 
ornamentals.

good soil and good culture. A quart of wet Peat

Cultural Directions They will be sent to you at the proper 
planting season. Poor success with many plants is often caused by ordering 
and planting too late in the season. The best planting times are very early 
spring when the trees and shrubs out of doors are 
just starting growth and the ground is still mel- 
low and cool, and in the fall after the first freez- 
ing weather. 
For the most part these Ornamental fruits are 
not subject to serious insects or disease injury so 
that spraying is not necessary.
