very attractive in the Spring. Each 75c., 10 for $6.00. 
Dwarf Fruit Trees 
A Dwarf tree does not grow as large as a regular or “‘Standard”’ tree. It is properly a dwarfed 
tree. The varieties are just the same as they are in larger trees but the rootstock used is that of a 
tree which is naturally small. The rootstock which we use for Dwarf Apple trees is known as Malling II 
and will produce trees about one-half the normal size. 

1. They require less land and a larger assortment of 
varieties can be grown in a small space. 
2. They begin to bear much sooner than Standard 
trees; within two or three years after planting. 
3. Their fruits are full sized and often of better qual- 
ity. The trees only are dwarf. They bear annually and 
produce a moderate quantity, ample for one family. 
A. Dwarf trees are much easier to care for. Harvest- 
ing, pruning and spraying operations are more easily 
handled. It is important that all roots come from the 
rootstock. If roots grow above the “‘graft’”’ or union of 
the rootstock and the top, a large, Standard tree will 
eventually result. Plant Dwarf Apple trees 12-15 
feet apart.
