selected plants. Every one is tested under Long Island conditions before being offered. 
Our stock includes the best of the old-time favorites and the dependable new ones, covering 
a range of seasons and uses to meet all requirements. 
CROSS POLLINATION 
Most fruit families have some varieties that are self-unfruitful and a good fruit crop 
cannot be assured unless at least one pollenizing variety from the same family is planted 
nearby. Those marked * are self-unfruitful and 
those marked ‘“P” are recommended pollen- 
izers. Those with both markings are self-unfruitful in themselves, but will pollenize other 
varieties. 
STANDARD APPLES 
Plant 25 to 30 feet apart for a permanent orchard. 
Most vareities bear when 6 or 8 years old.
