Pecan Trees in Xursery Row Fairhope, Ala., Dec. 11. 1920 • The Elberta peach trees you sent me last winter have made a wonderful growth and I am expecting fruit next summer." BROOKS LAWRENCE.
Text Appearing After Image:
Chestnuts Hardy ornamental trees with pleasing foliage and attractive flowers. In addition to their ornamental qualities all of the species are more or less valuable for their edible nuts. They grow best in well-drained soils with sunny exposures. PRICES.—$1.00 each; $8.50 per 10. Japan Mammoth.—Produces Chestnuts of mammoth size; tree is a strong grower, and of decided value as a shade tree. Spanish.—A rapid-growing tree of good size. The nuts are produced early, five-year-old trees on our grounds bearing good crops. The nuts are not so sweet as the native or American Chestnut, but find a ready market owing to their good size and fine appearance^ Walnuts Chestnut*. All of the species are valuable objects for lawn or landscape, and in addition for their toothsome nuts. The fruits of the Japanese Walnuts are considered superior to those of the native species, and in localities where the English Walnut is not hardy, are commended to the attention of orchardists. They thrive best in moist, fertile soils. PRICES.—$1.00 each; $8.50 per 10. Black.—A desirable shade tree and one of the most valuable for timber. Uncle Sam had the Boy Scouts looking up Black Walnut trees for gunstock material, you remember. Should be used for reforesting waste lands. Japan.—A vigorous tree, entirely hardy and a sure and prolific bearer. The Japan Walnuts are not as thin-shelled as the English, nor as good quality but much like it in appear- ance. They make a beautiful ornamental tree with a broad, spreading top. At home almost anywhere, except on poorly drained soils. Gxteenwood, Mississippi, Nov. 25, 1921. "Your shipment of fruit trees and grape vines were duly received. I am highly pleased with the ship- ment, and it is much better in every respect than stock I have been getting from other nurseries." F. HERR.
