DWARF FRUIT TREES 
Dwarf Fruit Trees are ideal ornamental plants, combining beauty and 
utility in a most delightful way. They grow no taller than a man can 
reach, and produce extra large, delicious fruit. They do not spread 
more than 10-15 ft. in diameter. Many of them bear fruit the first year 
planted, and they produce considerable crops a few‘years after plant- 
ing. They thrive in any average garden soil. 
It is a pleasure to watch those small trees when they are covered with 
beautiful blossoms in the spring, and when they are loaded with deli- 
cious fruit in the fall. 

We are one of the few nurseries supplying Dwarf Fruit Trees budded 
on dwarfing rootstocks which insure dwarf habit and early yields. 
Only dwarf pear trees are available at present. 
DWARF VERTICAL CORDONS 
Vertical Cordons are espalier trees which require a minimum of space, 
and will create a striking effect. They can be planted 2 ft. apart, and 
are most attractive when used as a border along a walk or a wall. A 
dozen or more trees can be planted in the same space that a single 
Standard fruit tree would require. 
Vertical Cordons have become the most popular garden type of tree in 
Europe, and they are now available in America. They are easy to care 
for. Directions will be included in each shipment. 
Gat Fxg Only pear trees can be supplied in Vertical Cordons. 
BEARING-AGE STANDARD FRUIT TREES 
These are wonderful trees; many of them have already fruited in the nursery, and 
most of them are again loaded with fruit buds. 
Please note, however, that they must become established in their new location in your 
garden before they bear again. Generally they begin to fruit the second year after 
planting. 
WHAT TO PLANT: DWARF OR STANDARD FRUIT TREES? 
Dwarf Fruit Trees should be preferred where space is limited. They are the ideal 
garden-type of tree for city and suburban homes while Standard Fruit Trees should be 
planted where sufficient space is available. 
BEST SIZES AND GRADES OF FRUIT TREES TO PLANT 
Our experience leads us to advise you to plant only the best grades. It pays peuey to 
plant a few large trees instead of twice as many small inferior trees. 
Fruit Trees are an investment for decades, and sometimes for generations. The pur- 
chase price of a fruit tree does not mean much when you realize that 1 or 2 bushels of 
fruit will pay for it.
