Flowering Cherry 


New Red Leaf Peach. Four years ago we dis- 
covered a tree with very red foliage in our 
seedling block; the color was so outstanding 
that we budded a considerable quantity of 
trees, which have proven to be real red each 
year. This spring, these trees produced 
beautiful rose-blossoms, but on account of 
the cold rains, the blooms were blasted, and 
we therefore do not know what kind of fruit 
this tree will produce—we know they will 
produce fruit of some kind; if it proves to 
be better than standard varieties now 
offered, will be worth thousands of dollars 
for propagation purposes. Think of the fun 
you will have watching this tree grow and 
wondering what kind of fruit it will pro- 
duce. There is a chance of your hitting 
the pot of gold! We know as an orna- 
mental it cannot be surpassed. Price: 414- 
516 ft. trees, $1.35 each; 2 for. $2.50; 5
