. Florists' review [microform]. Floriculture. A Christmas NOVELTY that will be a grreat seller with every retail florist I^HE Japanese Dwarfed Kumquat is •*• the smallest of the orange family. The fruit of the variety shown here is large, round and looks very much like a small orange. It is the sweetest of all the Kumquats. The color of the fruit is a beautiful golden yellow. The rind is smooth and aromatic, and is eaten with the fruit. The latter is delicious as an appetizer or dessert. Japanese Dwarfed Kumquats are very fine for pot culture and become fully de- veloped even in the smallest pots. When grown as a pot plant during the winter months, they come into bloom early and are continually burdened with blossoms and with small, medium and large ripe fruit.

Shipments in any quantity can be made after November 15. It will probably be possible to ship large orders by freight during the latter part of November, but after that the weather will probably be too cold for freight shipments. Many florists are placing: orders for Kumquats for Thanksgiving. We feel sure they will reorder in much larger quantities for Christmas. FIRST CAR DUE NOVEMBER 15-ORBER TODAY A. L. Randall Co.
