PUEBLA AVOCADO—Ripens from November to February 
Leucadia. If you like your avocados black, you'll like this 
one, in fact you'll like it anyway. The fruit is of good size, 
exceptional flavor and the trees are sturdy and free growing. 
October to December. Hardy. 
Nabal. Enormous green fruit, round in shape, of excellent 
consistency and quality that matures its fruit from June to 
September. Quite susceptible to frost. 
Puebla. Considered by us one of the finest home varie- 
ties. Occasionally during a lengthy cold spell the fruit 
deteriorates. At all other times the small tree bears heavy 
crops of large dark pear-shaped fruit, that in our estima- 
tion is superior in flavor to any other avocado. We have 
two heavy bearing trees. We wouldn't trade them for a 
ranch—not even a monkey ranch. Hardy to frost. Novem- 
ber to January. 
Ryan. We've had many folks ask for a summer Fuerte. 
At first we didn’t unaerstand, but now we get it. The 
Ryan is quite similar in appearance to the Fuerte in form, 
color, and size. Along in May about the time the Fuerte 
is off the market, the Ryan matures and may be picked 
from then until October. The thrifty, spreading tree pro- 
duces heavy crops year alter year with consistent regularity. 
FEIJOA 
Pineapple Guava. Coolidge variety. Bears large crops 
of refreshing rich-flavored fruit that is highly desirable for 
preserving or eating out of hand. A single plant will bear sat- 
isfactorily. Forms a shrub of outstanding ornamental value 
in both foliage and bloom. For screening purposes plant 
6 feet apart. Balled, 3-4 ft., $7.50; 2-3 ft., $5.00; 5-gal. contain- 
ers, $3:25;) gal. containers, $1025, 
JUJUBE 
Jujube. Jujubes are small, deep brown fruit that for flavor, 
texture and appearance make us think of dates. You will 
find them to be delicious whether eaten fresh, candied or 
made into jam. Ripen in Fall. The tree, which by the way, 
will grow into a handsome shade tree, grows to about 25 feet, 
has bright polished foliage which falls in winter. Will not 
freeze. 5-gal. containers, $3.75. 
GUAVA 
For hedge or screening purposes plant guavas 6 feet apart. 
Lemon Guava. We can't say we are particularly intrigued 
by tue tlavor—a.though many people seem to enjoy them— 
but we do admire their luge fruits, lush foliage and the in- 
tense red and gold of their autumn leaves. Rather tender to 
frost. 8 ft. 5-gal. containers, $3.25; gal. containers, $1.00. 
Red Strawberry Guava. The lazy man’s fruit—just pick 
‘em, wash ’em and eat ’em, or if you're particularly lazy, just 
pick ’em and eat ‘em. Each round dark-red fruit 1s packed 
full of sweet tangy goodness. It is our opinion they are far 
more tasty than strawberries. And do not forget the orna- 
mental value of their big polished leaves.- Grow to 6 or 8 
feet. Hardy. 5-gal. containers, $3.00; gal. containers, 90c. 
Yellow Sirawberry Guava. Identical to the foregoing va- 
riety except that the fruit is yellow and a trifle larger. 5-gal. 
containers, $3.00; gal. containers, 90c. 
OLIVE 
Mission. Ever eat home-cured olives? If so, you know 
how superior they are to those that are processed and canned 
commercially, This variety is valuable for oil, too, and we 
all are aware of the ornamental possibilities of the gray- 
green foliaged trees. For orchard planting space trees 25 
feet apart. Balled, heavy tops, 6-7 ft., $8.00; 5-6 ft., $6.50; 
5-gal. containers, $3.75. 
PASSION FRUIT 
Passiflora edulis. Bears big crops of delicious purple fruit 
about the size and shape of an egg. Inside a thin tough rind 
is enclosed a rich fruity pulp that is as tasty and flavorful as 
well-seasoned custard. Its large highly polished leaves and 
unique flowers provide an excellent cover for fence or pergola. 
Fairly hardy. 5-gal. containers, $3.75; gal. containers, $1.25. 
QUEENSLAND NUT 
Macadamia ternifolia. Dark shiny toothed leaves borne in 
whorls around sturdy branches form a dense round-headed 
tree of genuine character and unusual beauty. Ed’ble nuts 
about 1 inch in diameter and of rich flavor add to its value. 
Hardy except in very cold locations. 35 ft. 5-gal. containers, 
$5.50. 

CALAM ONDIN—Fruits hang in big golden clusters.
