FIGS 
Fig trees may be planted as close to- 
gether as 10 to 12 feet, and require very 
little cultivation. Cultivation should al- 
ways be shallow as the roots are close to 
the surface. Figs seem to do best when 
their roots can run under buildings. Both 
varieties we list as very hardy. 
Brown Turkey. Medium to large, yel- 
lowish brown; pulp tender, rich and of 
finest quality. Fruit borne on long 
stems, allowing it to hang blossom end 
down at maturity. 
Celeste. Fruit is of medium size with 
thin pale violet skin and firm, juicy, 
rich and sweet flesh. Tree strong grower 
and reliable bearer. NHardiest of all.

GRAPES 
Although the Bunch Grape is not native 
of the South, with proper care it gives 
excellent results. Vines should be planted 
8 to 10 feet apart and trained on a three- 
wire trellis. 
Concord. Blue-black. Vigorous grower 
and heavy bearer. An old favorite. 
Delaware. Small to medium-sized 
bunches of small pink fruits. In quality 
one of the best. 
Niagara. Large bunches of good-sized 
white fruits. Attractive market variety.

CITRUS FRUITS 
At Wight Nurseries we have producing 
trees of Satsuma Oranges, Kumquats, 
Duncan Grapefruit, Meyer Lemon, and 
Citrangequat. 
We do not recommend planting Citrus 
fruits north of the latitude of Albany, Ga. 
(Florida laws do not permit the introduc- 
tion of Citrus trees from outside that 
state.) 
Our Citrus fruits are budded on hardy 
Citrus trifoliata, and should come into 
bearing from two to three years after 
transplanting. Success with Citrus de- 
pends on well-drained soil. The trees 
should be kept free from Insect pests, by 
spraying two to four times each season. A 
hand spray pump is sufficient for this pur- 
pose. A southern exposure is best for all 
members of the orange family in that this 
gives them air drainage to the south. 
Owari Satsuma 
Begins bearing very young and is among 
the most deliciously flavored of Citrus 
fruits. Flesh tender, juicy, fine grained, 
sweet and delicious with a_ peculiarly 
agreeable flavor. The fruit ripens early in 
October through November. Satsumas 
can be raised satisfactorily in the back 
yard. 
By careful selection of buds in our own 
producing groves, we have built up a hardy 
strain of especially fine quality. See illus- 
tration, page 16. Each 10

Duncan Grapefruit 
Hardiest of the Grapefruit. Fruit large, 
juicy. $2.50 each. 
Kumaquat 
This is the smallest of the edible Citrus 
fruits grown in the northern part of the 
citrus-growing region. The Kumquat is a 
sweet-skinned orange, and makes a choice 
fruit for desserts, jellies, jams, preserves, 
and marmalades. The trees are hardy, 
bear enormous yiclds, and never miss a 
crop. See page 16. 
Nagami. Fruit oblong. 
Meiwa. Fruit large, round. 
Marumi. Fruit small, round. 
l-yr. plants, $1.50 each

Prospective fruit-growers are invited to 
visit our nurseries and inspect the trees 
and plants. If this is not convenient, write 
us; we will be glad to assist you.
