RED HAVEN PEACH 
A selection of fruit trees will add a great 
deal to the pleasure and utility of the 
home garden. Besides the undoubted ad- 
vantage of having your own fresh fruit, 
picked at just the right time for peak 
flavor, your fruit trees will provide shade 
throughout the summer months and in 
the spring the fragrance and beauty of 
the blossoms come as an extra dividend.

DWARF 
FRUIT TREES 
Dwarf fruit trees are ideally 
suited to the small property. 
They bear regular full sized 
fruit on trees much smaller 
than the standard fruit trees 
and come into bearing at a 
much earlier age. 
We can supply dwarf fruit 
trees in most of the varieties 
listed on these pages but 
strongly recommend the 
dwarf apples and pears.
