CIRCASSIAN WALNUT, KING OF NUT TREES—a paper shell Persian or English Walnut (Juglans Regia). This 
tree grows in many parts of the world; the hardiest is found in Russia, Poland and Northern Carpathian Moun- 
tains where winter temperatures at times drop to more than 40 degrees below zero. It is from these parts 
that the original stock was brought to Canada some years ago. Cions and seeds were from selected trees, 
known to be over 300 years old, 150 ft. high with a spread of more than 80 feet. The trees have a battleship 
gray colored skin, leaves large, glossy and beautifully scented. Nuts vary from that of the California English 
Walnut to three times this size. Nuts fall free of hull, For many years this tree has been a heavy producer in 
Canada and thousands are now growing in most of the Northern States. 5-6 ft. $6.50. 5-6 ft. root pruned trans- 
plants $8.00. These trees should bear the second and first year respectively after becoming established. 
CHINESE SWEET CHESTNUT (blight resistant)—Castanea Mollissima. From Tientsin district northern China. For 
two weeks of early summer this tree is a riot of yellow blossoms. Grows fast. Nut resembles our native sweet 
chestnut in size and flavor which the blight has killed throughout the country. The blossom, foliage and fruit 
of this tree make it worthy of a place on any property. Early producer, extremely hardy. Holds its dried and 
brown leaves during winter. Trees grow 40 to 60 feet, not self-pollinating, therefore more than one must be plant- 
ed, preferably three or more. 4-6 ft. $4.00 
ASIATIC TREE HAZEL (Corylus Colurna)—From mountains of Northern China. This tree has one straight stem 
with no large branches, pyramidal in shape. It is first out in spring and last to lose foliage in early winter. Nuts 
form in large burr to the number of 10 or more. Reaches a height of 120 to 200 feet, growth phenomenally rap-

the tree is in blossom with catkins of male flowers five or six inches in length and brilliant red spikes of female 
flowers amidst the foliage we have a very beautiful object in the landscape. The nuts grow in clusters of ten or 
more, both nut and kernel are heart shaped, large, easily opened, flavor butternut.” Special grafted, will bear 
soon. 3-4 ft. $5.50. 4-5 ft. $6.00.
