IIIT 
Giaut Hybrid Blueberries 
This year we are adding several newer, more productive varieties with larger 
fruits to the older varieties which have proven of value. 
All of them not only 
produce wonderfully large, plump and tender berries of delicious flavor but are 
also of year round value as ornamentals. 
The Spring flowers followed by the 
attractive blue of the ripening fruits are climaxed in the Fall by a grand display 
of scarlet foliage. In the Winter the new branches are colorful red and green. 
They reach a height of about 6 feet and combine well in the mixed shrubbery 
border or make an excellent border for vegetable and flower beds. 
Planted in a well drained soil, rich in peat or other vegetative matter, they 
will grow in productiveness with each succeeding year. 
An occasional Winter 
pruning to remove the old canes and an early Spring application of acid plant 
food are beneficial.

CARE OF NURSERY STOCK ON ARRIVAL 
If not ready to plant the stock the day it 
arrives, or if you have more than you can plant 
within a few hours, it should at once be heeled 
in. Select a well-drained spot, dig a trench 
about 18 inches deep, sloping on one side. Spread 
out the trees in the trench, each variety by itself. 
Be sure that the labels are carefully kept with 
each bundle. Lean them against the sloping 
side and sift fine dirt in among the roots, making 
sure that the earth will come in contact with 
every root; fill the trench partly full, and press 
firmly with the feet. Fill up level with the top 
of the ground and press again with the feet, 
covering with loose dirt. If there are too many 
trees for one trench, in covering the roots in the 
first, a second trench can be dug, and the opera- 
tion repeated as often as necessary.
