. Hale's select souther fruit trees. Nurseries (Horticulture) Catalogs; Nurseries (Horticulture) Georgia; Trees Catalogs; Fruit trees Catalogs. (5) Hale Georgia Orchard Co. Japanese Plums The Peach's Twin Money-Catcher. Another year's fruiting of this new race of Plums has given us much new light as to their value. There is no doubt that their introduction is doing more to stimulate both commercial and amateur fruit culture than any other one event that has taken place within the last quarter of a century. Trees Of tremendous vigor; come into bearing two and three years after planting, fijj and in such variety and season of ripening as to cover a period |JF of nearly three months with a daily supply of most luscious Plums. Japan Plums rival in beauty of color and deli- ciousness of flavor the choicest of all Pomona's gifts. The trees grow so quickly, produce so abun- antly, and the fruit is so large and fine, that it is possible to produce these delicious Plums as abun- dantly and cheaply as our most common apples. So far they seem to thrive equally well on light, dry, or quite heavy, moist soil, if on Plum roots, as they always should be. They are much less liable to the black-knot than the European varieties, and are never seriously injured by the curculio. The earliest varie- ties ripen in thir latitude early in May, aad the various kinds extend the season into Au- gust. They are beautiful in appearance, superior in quality, and many of them will keep from ten days to two weeks after picking, a great point in their favor for marketing A number of our customers have Japan Plum trees which, the second year from planting, produced fruit which sold for more than enough to pay the entire cost of the orchard! Think of investing capital where you can get it all back in two or three years, and have a property worth many times its cost, and increasing yearly! Another writes: "I sold 20 bushels of Japan Plums from 100 trees, two years planted, at from $3 to $7 per bus
