Oe Slucberrics 
Cultivated Large-Fruited Hybrids 
The supreme achievement of skilled 
horticulturists who have 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 
“Nlo, they are not in the least 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 above. 
2-year size, $7.50 per unit of 6 plants, 24 plants or 
over, $1.10 per plant.

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, Three $2.00, Doz. $6.50

New Hardy Seedless Grape 

Scedless G YN Apes 
New Hardy Seedless Concord Grape 
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.

Cspalier Fruit Crees 
Fully Trained, Dwarf, Bearing Age 
The Atmosphere That Makes Your 
Garden Thrilling. 
Espalier fruit trees are ideal ornamental 
plants, combining beauty, antiquity, and utility 
in a most delightful way. Aside from the charm, 
the best part of Espaliers is that, like vines, they 
take up proctically no room, thus leaving the 
precious ground space available for flowers and 
vegetables. Espaliers are found more practical 
than most other plants, because they can be 
grown in so many forms and varieties. They are 
treasured on large estates, and well suited for the small landholder 
also. 
Trees are grafted on the finest quality understock, with a proper 
root system to insure the trees remaining dwarf in habit and retain- 
ing their symmetrical shape. The average Espalier we offer has been 
in training for a period of six years—it is the result of faithful care 
and perfect knowledge of the art of pruning and grafting. Ordinary 
orchard stock does not prove successful, as it stubbornly resists 
any change in its rooted habits, and although cut back, the tree 
starts shooting upward and outward in all directions. .The result 
is not an Espalier. 
By including some of these exquisite fruit trees in your land- 
scaping, you will add that ‘‘different’’ touch to your grounds which 
every garden lover strives for. And, unlike other plants, they prove 
a wonderful investment in yielding crops of extra large, delicious, 
and superior quality fruit.
