Move over George Washington. -w It is not generally known that in his | youth George Washington had a J passionate interest in plant J breeding. In particular he worked on improving the fruit tree varieties of / the local Virginian orchards. Some | contemporary historians have given I more than a passing thought to the I notion that the famous cutting I down of the cherry tree, by George, < was an early attempt at orchard renovation. •’ Be that as it may. r It's axe time again in the orchards. £ The latest American varieties of stone fruits are replacing old timers Moorpark, Mary's Choice, Goldmine and the rest as fast as nurserymen can produce stocks. At Gardenway we have winkled out some of these superb fruits for those of you who have the space — We particularly recommend or chainsaws - Skaha a new American apricot tested by Orchardists in Central Otago. An early variety which colours quickly but should be left on the tree until "apricot coloured" to experience the full flavour. A large fruited variety with export potential. Use Trevatt as pollinator and for later crops. Springcrest is the best of the new peaches. A yellow-fleshed clingstone variety with a very small stone. Described as the best early peach and supersedes other varieties of the same season. {Mew varieties cost no more at Gardenway, just $5.99. Hazehuts are easy to grow, delicious to eat roasted, toasted, io gateaux or straight off the bush. Hazelnuts are being planted OO'OCC increasingly by nut farmers in Canterbury. Plant them in an open position and plant 2 or more to ensure Xfr'Ms pollination. Nuts are Nature's storehouse of energy, more concentrated even than cheese. But we sa Y' eat t * iem f° r enjoyment, our ■ ree i ea^et has a recipe for hazelnut gateau which is out of this world. The common hazelnut will fruit but Gardenway's named varieties have been selected for regular cropping, fruiting capacity and size of nut. Well branched bushes $5.99 each. Stella, a star cherry. Stella is a new cherry with special benefits for the home \ gardener. It grows about half the height of ordinary orchard f cherry trees and produces good crops without requiring another variety for pollination. Cherries (and other stone fruits) do well in ordinary soil which is well drained. Stella Cherries $6.99 each.
