Eureka. Imported by way of California ; gener- ally described as thornless, but the young trees, at least are quite thorny ; of upright growth, prolific and the fruit is of good quality. Flverbearing {Sicilian). A fine variety of Gen. Sanford's importa- tion. Tree thorn- Vless or nearly so ; quality best. Genoa. Im- ported from Gen- oa, Italy, to Cali- fornia, and from there brousht to Florida by Mr. Al- bert I. Bidwell. Tree an early and prolific bearer ; fruit of best qual- ity, ripening u p early in theseason, ,^hich makes it of especial value for market. ^Sicily. General Sanford's importation. This is the true Sicily lemon of commerce, and one of the first varieties we planted, after five years exper- ience, we have no hesitation in offering it as one of the best. \ Suacco. Imported by the United States Depart- ment of Agriculture ; has not yet fruited with us. \J Tuberculata. Also imported by the Department at Washington ; not yet tested, although recommend- , ed for trial. ^ Variegated. Leaves and new wood of the tree beautifully striped and mottled with creamy white ; very BELAIR PREMIUM LEMON. >Villa Franca. Considered by many growers as the best variety in cultivation. We can see but little j difference in habit of growth between it and Belair I Premium ; specimens of fruit are more rounded in form, as a rule, but in quality there is no perceptible \djfference that we can discover. ^ Sweet Ijemon (Dtitcis or Sweet Lime). Of no particular va'ue, although a place should always be found for a specimen tree, as both fruit and tree are ornamental. LIMES. {Citrus mcdica livietta.^ Florida ( West Indian or Mexican).
