NOT RECOMMENDED 
FIGS NORTH of VIRGINIA 
The Figis 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 
Brown Turkey, Celestial, and Everbearing being the most popular at this time. 
BROWN TURKEY. Large; dark brown skin covered with thick blue bloom; flesh red, 
very delicious flavor. One of the hardiest varieties. 
CELESTIAL. Considered the hardiest and can be grown outside the usual limits of cultiva- 
tion. Prolific, medium size, dark blue, sweet, and delicious. 
EVERBEARING. A new, straw-colored variety, resembling the Celestial but begins Hiner 
Everbearing Fig 
NECTARINES 
The Nectarine is another delicious fruit too seldom 
grown in the Hast. Itis scarcely more than a fuzzless 
Peach. The tree habits and 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 produc- 
tive, justifying all that the name SURE-CROP im- 
plies. Flesh of fruit is white, juicy, fine grained, 
tender, sweet, aromatic and very good in quality.

grown as Peaches and the Russian Strain which we

size, golden yellow, freestone, excellent quality; 
early bearer. Sizes and prices same as Nectarines 

GRAPES-Standard Varieties 
The city lot does not always afford sufficient room for all the tree fruits for home use, 
but no lot is too small to prevent growing sufficient Grapes for home use. 
may be trained over the walkway to the garage, the vines may be trained on outbuild- 
ings, the fence, or even on a trellis, affording a screen. Our large assortment of varieties 
will furnish Grapes of different classes, ripening throughout the season. Grapes start 
bearing early—usually the second year after being planted—are generally annual 
bearers, and are easily grown. 
Do not let the prices of the Grapes in this group lead you to believe that these varie- 
ties are not good. This group contains the best of the Standard Varieties found in 
most vineyards of the East, as well as in the home orchard.

PAWPAW 
A fruit native to Virginia as well as some 
other sections of the country. Somewhat re- 
sembles the bananain shape, color and taste. 
Relished by many; however, it is very sweet 
and has a peculiar flavor which at first does 
not always appeal, but with familiarity be- 
comes quite agreeable. Small tree, seldom 
growing more than 15 ft. Fruit averages 4 in. 
in length. Ripens September and October.

Russian Mulberry 
Hardy, prolific, sweet fruit greatly relished 
by birds and poultry. Fruit growers find it 
profitable to plant Mulberries near their 
Cherry trees as birds prefer the Mulberries, 
sparing the Cherries. Poultry raisers find 
Mulberry trees make desirable shade for 
poultry lots as well as furnish an abundance 
of fruit which poultry enjoys and thrives on. 
Many people enjoy fresh Mulberries from the 
tree; however they are too sweet for those 
who enjoy more acid fruits. The Mulberry 
is a rapid grower and annual bearer.

Oriental Persimmon 
The culture of this delicious fruit has been 
somewhat curtailed because many who are not 
familiar withit have attempted to compare it 
with our native Persimmon. It is regarded by 
some as being a tropical fruit. While it will 
growin more tropical climates it can be grown 
in Virginia along the coastline much farther 
north and generally throughout the South. A 
large, delicious fruit, averaging as large in size 
as our biggest Delicious Apples. The Tane- 
Nashi variety, which we grow and recommend, 
is roundish, conical in shape and the skin is 
bright red when fully ripe. As attractive in 
appearance as delicious in quality.
