IGS ( 
The Fig is a Southern fruit, grown only in the southern and eastern part of 
Virginia and in states farther South; 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, and Everbearing being the most popular 
at this time, other old ones having been displaced by Everbearing. 
BROWN TURKEY. Large; dark brown skin covered with thick, blue bloom. 
Flesh red, very delicious flavor. An old popular, well-known variety. 
EVERBEARING. A wonderful new Fig. Begins fruiting in July and con- 
tinues until frost. Large, straw-colored, sweet, delicious, firm fruit. Fre- 
quently bears the first year planted. Considered the most hardy of the 
Figs, and by far the most popular. Most Everbearing are now being planted 
than all other varieties combined. Served fresh from the tree, preserved 
and canned.

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 Mul- 
berries, sparing the Cherries. Many people enjoy fresh Mulberries from the tree; how- 
ever, they are too sweet for those who prefer more acid fruits. Rapid grower and

ORIENTAL PERSIMMON 
The culture of this delicious fruit has been somewhat curtailed because many who 
are not familiar with it have attempted to compare it with our native Persimmon. It 
is regarded by some as being a tropical fruit. While it will grow in more tropical climates, 
it can be grown in Virginia, along the coastline much farther north and generally through- 
out the South. Delicious fruit, averaging as large in size as our biggest Delicious Apples. 
We offer the Tane-Nashi, a large red, almost seedless, ripening Autumn.
