Princes Descriptive Catalogue Of Fruit And Ornamental Trees Shrubbery And Plants 1844

Excerpt from Prince's Descriptive Catalogue of Fruit and Ornamental Trees, Shrubbery and Plants, 1844: Cultivated and for Sale at the Linnæan Botanic Garden and Nurseries, Flushing, Long Island, Near New-York The stock of some of the newest sorts of trees is limited, and those trees, in consequence of their recent introduction, are of less size. Many other varieties will be announced hereafter in a Supplementary Catalogue, additional time being necessary as well for their propagation, as for judicious investigations, but in the mean time scions of them for en grafting can be supplied. New fruits are not added to the collection, merely, because their names differ, but a selection is made of those only, which merit and have received the encomiums of persons acquainted with the subject. Every tree when sent forth from the garden, is duly labelled; and from fifteen to forty trees are usually packed in each matted bundle, and where boxes are preferable, from 60 to 100 Trees and Shrubs can be packed in each.
