Descriptive catalogue of fruit trees small fruits, etc. . descriptivecatal1895cali Year: 1895 42 CALIFORNIA NURSERY CO. nized as the best, and as being strictly phylloxera proof. Grafting the cultivated varieties on this stock is considered the surest safeguard against the pest, and the best way to render our vineyards permanent and profitable. The RIPARIA is a very vigorous grower. It takes the grafts readily, forming per- fect unions. The grafts, in nearly every instance, make more vigorous and rapid growth on these wild stocks than when on their own roots. CURRANTS. Baldwin's Black—An English variety highly recommended. Black Grape—Much resembles Ogden's Black, but the plant is perhaps a stronger and more vigorous grower. Black Naples—A beautiful fruit, the finest and largest of all Black Currants; highly esteemed for jelly. Cherry—Fruit of the largest size; bunches short; berries large, deep red; a valuable market sort. Crandall's Black—A new American Black Currant, undoubtedly the best of its species yet introduced ; the berries are large, and of good quality. Well adapted for pies, jams, etc. Fay's Prolific—This new currant continues to maintain all the claims made for it. It is as large as the Cherry, more uniform, fruit less acid, fully as productive, and decidedly earlier. Fertile de Palluau—A vigorous, upright grower; bunches long; berries bright red, mod- erately juicy; very productive. Gondouin Red—Bunches very long, berries large, bright red, and rather acid. This and the preceding variety are better adapted to the hot interior localities. indusiry goos:-:berr\
