© (Jujube). This variety of Hardy Chinese Date is a fruit 
¥ from the high interior of China. It is quite hardy, the United 
States Department of Agriculture bulletins reporting that it 
has withstood temperatures of 22 degrees below zero with- 
out injury. It is adapted to a wide range of territory and 
all kinds of soil. 
It blooms very late in the spring, after all danger of frost 
is past. The tree is a heavy and constant bearer and com- 
~mences to bear at an early age, four-year-old trees having 
}. produced 150 pounds of fruit. The chocolate-colored fruit 
_ is one to two inches long. It is delicious when eaten fresh or 
_ cured like dates, and is excellent for preserves, jams and for 
most tasty and palatable confections. 
Price: 18-24 in, trees, $1.85 each; 2 for $3.50. 2-3 ft. 
ae » trees, $2.35 each. 

Everbearing Fig 
Our Dwarf Fig is particularly adapted to growing in the 
north, as it does well in either tubs or in the open ground. 
‘The root is perfectly hardy. Should tops freeze, it can be 
cut to the ground, and when it begins growing again it will 
_ produce fruit on the new wood. We recommend tub culture 
: north of Philadelphia. Plants bear the first year they are 
f ‘set out, and abundantly each year thereafter. The fruit is 
; of good size, sweet and delicious, with flesh that is firm and 
} meaty. Is an excellent fruit for making preserves, jams, 
canning, drying or to eat fresh. Fine, 2-3 ft. trees, 85c each; 
2 for $1.60.
