Old-Time European Method of Growing Fruit, Now Available for American Gardens 
These one-dimension flat-branched fruit trees were developed by European horticulturists many generations back to solve the problem 
of limited garden space: they fastened them to walls, arbors or fences and grew their fruit without shading their gardens. 
They are now produced in America and are recommended for placing against the east, south or west walls of your home or garage, where 
they are highly decorative; they are ideal for the penthouse garden. 
the intimate area you may plan for your daily sun-bath. 
A fenced-in play-green can be planted with them or they may screen 
Between 4 and 6 feet high when planted, they develop through the years until one day you may gather fruit by walking upstairs. You 
can train them to grow around a window or over a door. 
They are the last word in space economy. The shelter of a wall means earlier and more luscious fruit, of which they will actually yield 
a considerable amount.
