TREES AND PLANTS 
Citrus Fruits 
(ORANGES, KINKANS, LEMONS, ETC.) 
After many years' test, we сап unhesitatingly recommend 
Citrus Fruits budded upon Citrus trifoliata (Hardy Orange). 
This stock being particularly desirable for the colder sections 
of the Orange belt, and all varieties of Citrus budded upon it 
will stand more frost than when budded upon any other stock. 
Varieties budded on it bear at an early age, and trees grow 
off as rapidly as those budded upon sour orange or rough lemon 
stocks, when planted in open ground. The fruit also ripens 
earlier than the same variety grown on other stocks. These 
plants are most desirable for growing in tubs in greenhouses 
and conservatories. The increasing demand for our plants 
speaks for itself. All plants are shipped with a ball of earth 
about the roots. For distant shipment the plants should be 
defoliated. In this manner the growth of the plant is not 
checked.

Round (Marumi) and Oblong (Nagami). This plant is of 
dwarf growth, seldom exeeeding 6 to 8 feet, and very com- 
paet; fruit about the sizeof a small plum; rind sweet; juice 
acid. It ean be eaten whole and is very refreshing. Excel- 
lent preserves are made from this variety. Exceedingly pro- 
ductive, and an excellent plant for growing in pots.

fashionable fruit, Peel is smooth and thin, flesh juicy and free 
from bitterness, Same sizes and prices as oranges.
