RAISINS. Raisins are not common in China, and those seen there are a small, seedless, greenish-white kind, said to be made from grapes grown in the neighborhood of Kweihuacheng, Mongolia, a district with very dry air. VARIOCS SPECIES OF WILD GRAPES. chinese Name, Shan pootao. In northern China, Manchuria, and eastern Siberia a wild grape (Vitis amurensis) grows. This grape is found in dense thickets overrunning shrubs and trees. It is a rather prolific bearer, the bunches and berries being small, however, and rather sour; but the plant is so remarkably "hardy, standing temperatures of--40 F., that there may be a possibility of using it in hybridization experiments. In its wild state it is collected by the Chinese and Russians and eagerly eaten. In eastern Siberia the writer also tasted some inferior wine and some good vinegar that had been made from it by a Russian settler. (S. P. I. Xos. 19477, 19600, 20347 to 20349, and 22601.) Besides the Vitus amurensis, one finds here and there various other wild species. In the Boshan district is found a wild grape called' Ya pu tao" (S. P. I. No. 21979). From it the Chinese make a fairly good wine, which is remarkably strong. In the Lungtung district of Shantung there are two other species, both bearing edible berries. In the Mokansan region, to the southwest of Shanghai, one finds grapes that have many spines along their branches and bear edible berries. They are even sparingly...

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Agricultural Explorations in the Fruit and Nut Orchards of China In transplanting, however, the cutting back of roots is carried to excess, and this is one of the reasons why tree planting in China is considered such a hazardous undertaking. What Is lacking, however, in the care of the trees is made up by the excellent care bestowed upon the soil. All orchards are cultivated except those of the jujube, which do not need it, but even these are kept free from weeds. The custom is to plow the orchards before the winter sets in, then to let the ground lie rough during that season, to plow it again in the spring, and to harrow and cultivate whenever the ground needs it, so as to conserve the subsoil moisture. Manuring is not much resorted to for fruit trees, as fertilizers Of all kinds are too scarce; but crops are Often grown between the trees, and perhaps the trees Obtain extra nourishment from the manure supplied to these crops.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: *2023 GardenComm Media Awards Silver Laurel Medal of Achievement The easy-to-use resource for growing healthy, resilient, low-maintenance trees, shrubs, vines, and other fruiting plants from around the world—perfect for farmers, gardeners, and landscapers at every scale. Illustrated with more than 200 color photographs and covering 50 productive edible crops—from Arctic kiwi to jujube, medlar to heartnut—this is the go-to guide for growers interested in creating diversity in their growing spaces. "[Levy and Serrano] go way beyond the standard fare. . . . With their help, you’ll be growing persimmons, currants and hazelnuts in no time."—Modern Farmer Cold-Hardy Fruits and Nuts is a one-stop compendium of the most productive, edible fruit-and nut-bearing crops that push the boundaries of what can survive winters in cold-temperate growing regions. While most nurseries and guidebooks feature plants that are riddled with pest problems (such as apples and peaches), veteran growers and founders of the Hortus Arboretum and Botanical Gardens, Allyson Levy and Scott Serrano, focus on both common and unfamiliar fruits that have few, if any, pest or disease problems and an overall higher level of resilience. Inside Cold-Hardy Fruits and Nuts you’ll find: Taste profiles for all fifty hardy fruits and nuts, with notes on harvesting and uses Plant descriptions and natural histories Recommended cultivars, both new and classic Propagation methods for increasing plants Nut profiles including almonds, chestnuts, walnuts, and pecans Fertilization needs and soil/site requirements And much more! With beautiful and instructive color photographs throughout, the book is also full of concise, clearly written botanical and cultural information based on the authors’ years of growing experience. The fifty fruits and nuts featured provide a nice balance of the familiar and the exotic: from almonds and pecans to more unexpected fruits like maypop and Himalayan chocolate berry. Cold-Hardy Fruits and Nuts gives adventurous gardeners all they need to get growing. Both experienced and novice gardeners who are interested in creating a sustainable landscape with a greater diversity of plant life—while also providing healthy foods—will find this book an invaluable resource.
