Hood and Company and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-21 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Descriptive Catalogue of Fruit and Ornamental Trees, Grape Vines, Small Fruits, Shrubs, Plants, Etc., 1925 After an experience of fifty years in the nursery business, all of which time has been spent in business at this place, we take pleasure in presenting this new edition of our catalog to our friends and patrons, hoping that they will accept our thanks for the generous patronage and confidence they have bestowed upon us in the past. It will be our aim in the future, by strict attention to business and honest dealing in all transactions, to merit a continuance of the same. We will direct our efforts and spare no pains or money to pro duce the very vest stock that can be grown, and recommend such fruits as have proven to be of value. New fruits that have not been fully tested, we will recommend planting only in small lots, which will be the means of disseminating them, and may be the cause of having many new fruits that will prove to do as well and be as popular all over the country as the old and well known varieties. Since establishing our nurseries, improvement has been made in growing first class stock, and people generally educated to know what are good trees. When W. T. Hood started in the nursery business fifty years ago, he got his early training under Franklin Davis, and as soon as he got the trees grown to the planting age, planted out orchards in the nursery grounds. Apples, to see the merits of the fruit. Peaches to see the merits. Also to see that they were true to name and to cut buds from every two years, so as to keep stock true to name in the nursery, and we have always wanted to have commercial orchard, but did not have the room to spare at our nurseries at Richmond, but winter of 1908, with I. Howard Williams, bought what we thought was an ideal farm on the C. O. R. R., between Greenwood and Afton, Virginia, and we have at present one hundred and thirty acres planted with apples and peaches. The past season, we shipped over carriers of peach and have barrels of apples. Our peaches have been bearing every year, commencing the third year from planting. And most all trees have been bearing too heavy crops of all the varieties we grow. Which was nearly one hundred varieties. These all proved true to name except two varieties. We also had one variety that we got a party to cut buds for us from some orchard in the Blue Ridge, and they were mixed with another late variety. We are very proud of our record, as we have always been afraid that there was danger of getting peach mixed in cutting buds on carelessness of a budder in leaving stick in box and putting in other buds with it.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Descriptive Catalogue of Fruit and Ornamental Trees, Grape Vines, Small Fruits, Shrubs, Plants, Roses, Etc., 1894 This Catalogue has been prepared with great care. The selection of varieties embraces all the lates and most promising introductions, as well as the most popular and thoroughly proved older sorts. It will, we think, form a most efficient and competent guide to the professional or the amateur, in the selection of the Choicest Fruits or Ornamentals, for the Garden, Orchard, Park or Lawn. To the planter or purchaser of nursery stock, at least three things are indispensable first, varieties true to name second, healthy, vigorous. Well matured trees or plants and third, careful and judicious packing, without which all may be lost. We give the most careful scrutiny to the propagation of varieties, endeavoring by all methods known to us, to protect ourselves from error or imposition, and rejecting anything of which we have reason to feel suspicious. By such careful and constant watching and attention, we are warranted in offering our stock as pure and absolutely true to name.

Download or read book Illustrated Descriptive Catalogue of Fruit and Ornamental Trees Small Fruits Vines Roses Shrubs Etc Etc Classic Reprint written by Kentucky Nursery Company and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12-10 with total page 94 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Illustrated Descriptive Catalogue of Fruit and Ornamental Trees, Small Fruits, Vines, Roses, Shrubs, Etc., Etc In both standard and dwarf trees, it will be usually found a safe rule to cut back in pruning at transplanting one-half the growth of the previous season. The ends of the larger roots should be made smooth with a sharp knife where they have been roughly cut by the spade in digging, as new roots will form and the injured parts heal more readily with this attention. Planting - The holes should be dug large enough in the first place to receive the roots of the tree without' cramping or bending them from their natural posi tion. The tree having been properly pruned, should be held upright and the earth filled in about the roots, the finest and best soil from the surface being worked in among them, filling every space and bringing every root fully in contact with it. In extremely dry weather a pail of water may be poured upon the earth, to settle it about the roots, but this is seldom necessary. Finish the planting by placing soil enough about the tree to raise it somewhat higher than elsewhere, and press the soil carefully down with the foot. Care must be taken against planting too deep; when the earth settles about the tree it should stand at the same height as when in the Nursery, When set in autumn it is well to raise a mound of earth about the trees a foot or more in height. This will keep them from being swayed by the winds or thrown out by the frost during the winter. It should be removed in the spring. In planting dwarf trees the stock on which they are budded, and no more, should be under ground. They will then stand firmly and will not lose their dwarf character by the rooting of the standard stock. Staking - If trees are tall or in exposed situations, they should be supported by stakes to prevent injury from the action of the wind. Staking is done in the best manner by driving two strong stakes firmly in the ground, one on each side of the tree about a foot distant from it, and fastening the tree between them with bands of straw or other soft material, so that it may be kept in an upright position without chafing until the roots obtain a firm hold upon the soil.

The first is its delicious quality, as found in the finest varieties its buttery or melting texture, and its delicious and per fumed flavor. In this respect it greatly excels the apple, and keeps nearly as well. Even the peach is scarcely superior, while it keeps only two or three days. But the pear, like everything highly desirable and valuable, cannot be had without attention, labor and skill. There are only a few exceptions to this general rule. The relative prices Of the apple and pear being about one TO ten, show at the same time the superior value Of the latter, and the greater skill required to bring it to perfection. The market value of fine pears is a good indication or measure Of the amount of attention which this fruit deserves.
