In these times, with high prices of fruits and vegetables, as well as other 
commodities, many are turning to home gardening as a means of cutting 
the cost of living. And rightly so, for the quality of home grown fruit is 
much superior to that from the market. These few back yard trees add 
a glorious touch to the spring garden with their handsome blossoms and 
later with their colorful fruits. 
Trees are priced bare root at $1.75 and $2.00. Slightly higher in containers.
