This concise 1894 handbook of fruit culture was designed to aid both the beginning farmer and the established farmer who hadn't the time for extensive research in successfully cultivating common fruits.

Produced in association with the Royal Horticultural Society, the titles in this series have become standard works of practical gardening reference. Each book is illustrated with easy-to-follow, step-by-step illustrations that clearly guide the reader through all the essential techniques of successful gardening. This manual supplies information on growing conventional and more exotic fruits, from soft, tree, and warm temperate fruits to nuts and currants.
