Book Description
Written by the long-time manager of the renowned Alan Chadwick Garden at the University of California, Santa Cruz, this substantial, authoritative, and beautiful full-color guide covers everything you need to know about organically growing healthy, bountiful fruit trees. WINNER OF THE AMERICAN HORTICULTURAL SOCIETY BOOK AWARD For more than forty years, Orin Martin has taught thousands of apprentices, students, and home gardeners the art and craft of growing fruit trees organically. In Fruit Trees for Every Garden, Orin shares--with hard-won wisdom and plenty of humor--his recommended fruit varieties and techniques for productive trees, including apple, pear, peach, plum, apricot, nectarine, sweet cherry, orange, lemon, fig, and more. If you crave crisp apples, juicy peaches, or varieties of fruit that can never be found in the store, they are all within reach in your own backyard. Whether you have one tree or a hundred, Orin gives you all the tools you need, from tree selection and planting practices to seasonal feeding guidelines and in-depth pruning tutorials. Along the way, you'll gain a deeper understanding of the core principles of organic gardening and soil stewardship: compost, cultivation, cover crops, and increasing biodiversity for a healthier garden. This book is more than just a gardening manual; it's designed to help you understand the why behind the how, allowing you to apply these techniques to your own slice of paradise and make the best choices for your individual trees. Filled with informative illustrations, full-color photography, and evocative intaglio etchings by artist Stephanie Martin, Fruit Trees for Every Garden is a striking and practical guide that will enable you to enjoy the great pleasure and beauty of raising homegrown, organic fruit for years to come.

Book Description
Excerpt from Descriptive Catalogue of Fruit Trees, Small Fruits, Etc The assortment in both the fruit and ornamental departments of our establishment having become so extensive, we have found it necessary to divide our Descriptive Catalogue into two parts, (in separate publications, ) the first to include Fruit Trees, Small Fruits, Grapes, etc., and the second, Ornamental Nursery Stock only. They will be designated as nos. 1 and 2, respectively, in our list of Catalogues, and will be issued only from time to time, as circumstances may require. A price list, -known as N O, 3, which merely gives prices and sizes on the contents of Nos 1 and 2, will be published annually. We shall include in either only such articles as We have actually growing on our grounds, (being the only firm on the coast that really grows, themselves, all they Offer, ) and have aimed to confine ourselves to cultivating only such varieties in both departments as, with proper care, will give entire satisfaction to our customers. A cordial invitation is extended to all to visit our grounds, where the stock may be seen in different stages of cultivation. Our Nursery can be reached from San Francisco by boats leaving Market Street Wharf, and connecting with trains for Niles, at A. M. And P. M. From Sacramento and all points north and south, by train leaving Sacramento at A. M. From San Jose and its southern connections, by trains leaving there at 5, A. M., and and P. M.
