HOLMES HERITAGE- 
he Years of Selective 
Parent Stock Make These 
BARE All Holmes Citrus Trees are grown Mother 
Nature’s way, out in our nursery rows. Here 
ROOT roots can develop, ‘‘wide-area’’ feeding can 
take place, deep-down root vitality can grow. 
. 50 Then with years of time and tedious care, roots 
are pruned, trees are transplanted and heaviest 
ee root growth is encouraged. : 
: This is why you can “‘Buy Trees Today— Pick 
Fruit Tomorrow’? when you come to Holmes. Each citrus 
tree in our nursery is literally ‘‘portable’’ fruit market! These 
dense root systems dig up in solid balls, so that you can haul 
them to your grounds, plant them and they practically never 
know they’ve been moved! Actually, it IS as easy as that with 
a Holmes tree! 
Only at Holmes Nursery can you buy Root-Pruned Trans- 
planted Citrus Trees, specially wire-balled in treated burlap 
to give you greatest assurance of success.

HOLMES GRAFTED AVOCADOS 
Since Avocados do not come true from seed, we offer 
only the finest:grafted: plants in varieties hardy enough to 
recommend for Central Florida. Much depends upon hav- 
ing a good root system. 
We learned a long time ago that Avocados must have 
rich soil and plenty of moisture. Plant grafted trees in 
pits well prepared with ample Holmes Dyna-Gro Compost. 
Other necessities are abundant moisture at all times, 
mulching and spraying with copper and other sprays as 
instructed in bulletins from the State Experiment Station. 
Our grafted trees grow very fast when properly cared for.
