. Catalogue of fruit trees cultivated by George Bunyard & Co., Royal Nurseries, 1898-99. Nurseries (Horticulture); Fruit-culture. Pyramidal trees root-pruned every two or three years, and summer pruned in August, become veryprolific and orna- mental. Apples on "Para- dise " and Pears on "Quince" do not grow so vigorously as on free stocks, and can thus be planted 3 to 6 feet apart. 1/6 to 5/0 each. No. 6. Horizontally trained. Pears and Apples are thus formed for espaliers, or walls, and can be carried up to as many lateral tiers of branches as required. 3/6 and 5/0. Ex

G. B. & Co. aim to grow every worthy kind, and their "Selection" is now presumably the best in Britain.
