or any other sort you may prefer. Tie the fruit to those bushes which have no blossoms, allowing each fruit bush to bear only one kind of fruit.

In case there are no bushes, or if the bushes are too few in number, use branches or sticks with natural foliage, or leaves made of green tissue paper; make the latter of paper in several layers, that a number may be cut at a time like the pattern ([Fig. 143]). Crimp through the centre by folding lengthwise over a hat-pin and pushing the folded centre together ([Fig. 144]). The method is quick and gives satisfactory leaves ([Fig. 145]). Cut leaves in different sizes as you will need some larger than others.
The sticks used as bushes should be of varying heights sharpened at the lower end and driven into the ground.
Pretend the sticks are fruit trees and flower bushes and plant them where they will appear to best advantage.
