VINE PEACH or MANGO MELON. The vine on which they are borne is similar to the musk- melon, and requires the same cultivation. The fruit is about the size of a large peaeh. and of a bright orange yellow color somewhat rus- seted. When it first ripens it is quite hard, but soon they become mellow and sweet, and have a rich flavor. When ripe the fruit falls from the vine; the flesh is very firm with a small cavity in the center, and when pealed and the seeds taken out they much resemble peaches. A few pieces of sliced lemon or a little lemon essence, adds to their flavor and is usually desirable. In the west and northwest where fruit is scarce, we feel certain that they will quickly become popular, as they are easily cultivated, wonderfully prolific, and can be used in every way in which you would use a peach. Pkt. 5 cts., oz. 20 GARDEN LEMON. It resembles the Vine Peach in manner of growth and shape of fruit, but Is distinct in color, and when ripe is not russeted like the Vine Peach. Fruit is somewhat smaller than Vine Peach, has thinner flesh and is most decidedly more acid, thus dis- pensing with the sliced lemons which are so important in putting up the Vine Peach. Pkt 5 cts., oz. 25 cts. ORNAMENTAL POMEGRANATE- An exceed- ingly interesting novelty, and very ornamen- tal. The fruit is almost lound, with distinct markings. Grows on a pretty vine; fruit orange yellow, slightly striped, and sometimes spotted red; varying from the size of a small peach to that of an orange, Very fragrant sweetly perfuming a room with their exquisite odor for days. Very prolific and easily grown. Plant and cultivate same as for muskmelon.
