| NECTARINES 
The Nectarine is another delicious fruit too seldom grown in the East. It is scarcely more 
than a fuzzless Peach. The tree habits, and the quality of the fruit are very much like those 
of the Peach with the exception of the fruit being smooth like a Plum. 
We offer the SURE-CROP, which was imported from New Zealand by the United States 
Department of Agriculture. The fruit is large, bright red, and has a very pleasant flavor. 
The tree is hardy and productive, justifying all that the name SURE-CROP implies. The 
flesh of the fruit is white, juicy, fine grained, tender, sweet, aromatic and very good in quality.

FIGS (Not recommended North of Virginia) 
The Fig is a Southern fruit, grown only in the southern and eastern part of Virginia and is not recommended for 
general planting north of Virginia. It is one of the earliest trees to bear, often producing fruit the first year after 
being transplanted. The Fig is too well known throughout the South to require a detailed description. However, 
there are a dozen or more varieties, the Celestial and Everbearing being the two most popular at this time.
