To Our Friends and Customers

E HAVE been issuing “catalogues’’ since 1879 — the first
being simply one sheet announcements in a very humble
form. This was in Napa County, when the senior mem-
ber of the firm addressed the public as proprietor of Mag-
nolia Farm Nurseries. Later, as the business grew, land
adjoining Napa City was rented, and the nursery was re-
christened as “Napa Valley Nurseries.” Business thriv-
was bought, and an orchard of 76 acres planted, which bore sev-
eral crops, until, in 1902, the business and property was sold, and a vine-
yard near Fresno was purchased, Mr. Coates and family going to Europe
for a prolonged stay. Returning in 1904, the Fresno property was sold
and land bought in Santa Clara Valley, and the nursery business again
started, as a corporation, under its present name. This is a very brief
sketch of a work extending over a good many years, during which time
four trips were made to Europe.

Every catalogue issued has been an improvement on its predecessor in
the increased number of fruits and plants described. In California the
principal nurseries specialize; in our case the French Prune, the Walnut
and Ornamental Trees and Shrubs in pots (especially the native Califor-
nian plants), being features which are given the most attention.

It is with a great deal of pleasure and some pride that we present this
catalogue. We know that the best advertisement is a pleased customer,
and we shall endeavor, more than ever, to give entire satisfaction to all
who may do business with us.

Practical information and detailed instructions given are as brief as pos-
sible ; may we ask that the same be read carefully ?

E GROW a general fruit tree stock, nut trees, grape vines, and small fruits, and a large
collection of hardy ornamental trees and shrubs. We grow in our own orchards all of
the varieties of fruit and nut trees, etc,, that we propagate. Customers may, during the
summer months, see the trees in bearing. We have also extensive grounds laid out in or-
namental trees and shrubbery, located on gently sloping hills which command an en-
trancing view of the famous Santa Clara Valley towards its southern limit, this tract of
seventy acres forming one of the most beautiful and picturesque spots in the whole of
California. We make a specialty of growing such trees and plants that are best suited
to California conditions, including, of course, our native trees, and it would well pay any
who may contemplate the laying out of either an extensive park or a town lot to visit
our grounds and be therefore better prepared to select the varieties which would be most pleasing and sat-
isfactory. Our trees are grown by ourselves on oux own grounds. If at any time trees are purchased from
other nurseries, customers will be so notified.

OUR FRUIT TREE NURSERIES

Are on the Island Farm, near San Juan, where
we have the best of land, and far removed from old
orchards, so that infection from insect pests is
practically an impossibility.

PLEASE NOTE CAREFULLY

Location. Our freight, express and post-office are
at Morganhill, and our office, orchards, experirnental
grounds, and eucalyptus groves, seventy acres in all,
are within three-quarters of a mile from railroad. We
are on the main S. P. line between San Francisco
and the South, with ready access to the Sacramento
and San Joaquin valleys via Niles and Tracy.

Shipping. Give plain directions as to route, and
whether by freight or express. We recommend ex-
press for all except large shipments.

Responsibility. We cannot be held liable for any
damage that may result from delays in transporta-
tion or through the inability of the horticultural offi-
cers to make prompt inspection.

Orders. We aim to fill orders in rotation as re-
ceived, and will always endeavor to use the utmost
promptness. If customers would order early and
leave it to our discretion when to ship, annoying de-
lays would be avoided. Even if the land is not ready
for planting, it is much better to have the trees
ready, bundles opened and roots well covered in a
shallow trench.

Substitutions. Always state, in a mixed order, if
any substitutions may be made or not. If “no sub-
stitution” is written on order, such instructions will
be carefully heeded.

Complaints. All claims for shortage or any other
possible mistakes must be made within two days
after receipt of stock, or they cannot be allowed.
Carefully examine trees or plants upon arrival. If
anything is wrong notify us at once; adjustments,
if any are needed, are made at this time.

Quarantine Laws. It is to our interest to take
every precaution to ship nothing but stock that is
clean and healthy ; we could not afford to do other-
wise. The law has often worked a hardship upon
planter and nurseryman, owing to inadequate mea-
sures for inspection of stock at point of destination,
and consequent delays in delivery. Our trees are all
shipped under the County Commissioner’s certificate.

Guarantee of Genuineness. While every care is
taken to sell stock true to name and description,
mistakes may sometimes occur, in which case, on
proper proof being presented, we shall be ready to
refund the amount paid or will replace such trees or
other stock.

In addition to precautions usually taken, we now
make a practice of labeling trees, etc., in the nur-
sery before they are dug, thus rendering any mis-
takes practically impossible.

It is mutually understood and agreed to between
purchaser and ourselves that such guarantee of gen-
uineness shall in no case make us liable for any sum
greater than the original amount paid for any stock
that may prove to be untrue. If this is not agreed to

by purchaser, trees or plants must be returned at
once.

Packing. This is done in the best manner, ami
charges made simply to cover cost of material used.
No charge for cartage to railroad.

The charge per bale would amount to about 15
cts. to $1.00, according to size, and for ornamental
stock from 25 cts. to $1.00 per box.

SOME TREE PLANTING HINTS

DIGGING THE HOLE. In size of the hole made
in which to plant a tree, the diameter is of more
importance than the depth. If the hole were always
dug IV2 ft. X 1J4 ft., there would not be so much
reason for criticism, but it is often much smaller.
2 ft. wide and 1J4 ft. deep should be the minimum
size, with bottom of hole convex, and roots spread
outwards and downwards in a natural manner. In
heavy soil a tree should be planted shallow, certain-
ly no deeper than it stood in the nursery; in sandy
or light soil it would do no harm if it is set an inch
or two deeper. While a tree will often do well if the
roots are cut quite close, the fact remains that it is
a safer policy to retain all the young fibrous roots
that are alive ; these are always the first to grow
and to sustain life in the newly-planted tree. Oc-
casional instances which seem to disprove this
should not be heeded, but the general results fol-
lowing what is most wddely practiced.

TIME TO PLANT. The time for planting decid-
uous trees in California is any time after the
ground can be prepared and the dormant trees can
be procured. Usually this is about the first of Janu-
ary. This gives about three months in which to
plant, and then let the work be done as quickly as
possible, weather conditions being favorable.
HEADING BACK. A deciduous fruit or almond
tree should be not less than 2 ft. from the ground
after it is planted, and this may be a guide for
“heading back.” This length of trunk allows for
proper spacing of branches which are to form the
head, and of which there should never be more than
four, preferably three.

IRRIGATING. The only rule governing irrigation
is to see that the tree or plant has sufficient moist-
ure, and to apply water to that end. Extremes
should be avoided. Never wait till soil is dry, and
then “give a bucketful,” or flood the land, but add
water in the manner most practicable under existing
conditions while soil is moist enough to absorb it.
In other words, “little and often” is better than the
extremes of drouth and flood. A little water applied
to newly planted trees in the spring, after rains are
over, will keep roots active, and do rnuch more good
than a large quantity given after soil gets dry and
roots have stopped growing.

WALNUTS. The tops of walnut trees should be cut
back to about 5 ft. ; the wood at top is soft and
pithy, from which buds do not start well ; the wal-
nut may be pruned as any other tree in order to get
a compact, well-rounded head.

“SOUR-SAP.” At the moment it is believed that
sour-sap in root or in branches may be due to three

causes, acting singly or sometimes, perhaps, acting
together. They are (1) loss of root hairs by too dry
soil in the autumn; (2) loss of root hairs by decay
in water-soaked soil in the winter; (3) injury to
branch tissue by sharp frost after sap-flow has
started. All these conditions interfere with normal
sap circulation and induce fermentation which gives
rise to the name “sour-sap.” — Pacific Rural Press.

REMEMBER. On receiving trees, open bale at
once, cut open bunches, and spread roots in shal-
low trench ; cover with sand or fine earth, and, if
weather is dry, soak the ground well.

If any trees should appear dry, they may be
soaked, root and top, in a trough all night.

While planting, keep roots moist by leaving them
in a barrel half full of water, or by “puddling”
before taking to the field. This means to dip the
roots into a hole previously prepared so that it is full
of mud of the consistency of stiff paint; this will
keep roots from drying quickly.

SHADING. Shade the trunks . with tree protectors
or with burlap or paper; this is very important, as
it prevents sunburn.

.SPRAYING. Spray twice a year with Peerless
.Spray, and trees are more likely to remain healthy ;
it costs but little, and can be applied any time in
the year.

monds, French prunes, and most other varieties of
plum do well on peach root.

The apple requires a rich soil, with plenty of
moisture. Pears do well on heavy or very wet soil,
but if extremely wet and heavy the quince root
should be used, in which case the trees should be
planted 15 feet apart, as they grow small and
stocky; produce while young; bear very large fruit.

The Myrobolan plum root is most largely used for
the plum or prune family where the soil is heavy
and inclined to be wet late in the spring, or where
there is a clay subsoil. It is also a good stock for
the apricot in similar locations, but it is better to
plant the apricot only where the soil would be con-
genial to the peach, apricot or almond root. Many
orchards have proved failures because of misplant-
ing in regard to the root being unsuited to the soil
conditions.

We wish to emphasize the importance of strict at-
tention to the handling and care of trees as above
briefly outlined. We have had occasion to investigate
cases of complaint of trees not growing well, and
invariably, without a single exception, the cause has
been gross lack of proper care in some particular.

INSECT PESTS AND TREE
DISEASES

ORNAMENTALS. Special instructions will be
given regarding the handling and care of evergreen
or other ornamental stock.

REPORT AT ONCE if anything does not seem
right, or if information on any subject is desired.

The Expan Tree Protector, as illustrated, is very
[)opular. We recommend it. Can be ordered from the
Expan Co., Redlands, or from us, and shipped with
trees.

DIFFERENT ROOTS FOR DIFFERENT
.SOILS. For the driest soils, or where the water level
falls low, and where there is no clay subsoil, the
apricot root is to be recommended. On this root the
apricot and the peach do very well, also some vari-
eties of plum or prune. Where the soil is inclined to
be dry and is well drained naturally, the almond root
is preferable, and it is hardier than the apricot,
standing better if the roots should penetrate to clay
or more or less impervious rocky strata. The almond
and the French prune succeed especially well on this
root, as do also other varieties of plum, peaches and
apricots. The peach root is more adaptive than either
the preceding, succeeding in a wider range of soils.
It will thrive in heavy soil, if water does not stand
too near the surface in the spring, and will also suc-
ceed in fairly dry or sandy soils, although in the
latter, irrigation would be helpful. The peach is
generally propagated on peach root. Apricots, al-

There are certain formulas in the matter of insect
control concerning which there is little change or
difference of opinion. It is always advisable, how-
ever. to consult the State Horticultural Commis-
sioner at Sacramento, or any of his deputies, or the
duly appointed County Commissioner, or the State
University at Berkeley, if there exists any doubt as
to the disease or pest, and the most up-to-date
method by which its ill effects may be controlled.
For fungous diseases, such as peach blight, curl
leaf, etc., use

BORDEAUX MIXTURE

When trees are dormant.

Copper sulphate 5 lbs.

Stone lime 5 lbs.

Water 50 gals.

Dissolve the copper sulphate by putting it in a
bag of coarse cloth, and hanging this in a vessel
holding at least four gallons, so that it is just cov-
ered by the water. Use an earthern or wooden ves-
sel. Slake the lime in an equal amount of water,
then mix the two and add water to make fifty gal-
lons. Apply in early winter and again just as buds
are opening, if possible.

TREE WHITEWASH

Quicklime 30 lbs.

Tallow 4 lbs.

Salt 5 lbs.

Water enough to make mixture flow freely.

LIME-SULPHUR

A winter wash to clean trees, kill scale, etc.

Quicklime 33 lbs.

Sulphur 66 lbs.

Water 200 gals.

Sift sulphur through box with screen bottom into
boiling tank with 50 gallons water. Add the lime
and boil 45 minutes to one hour. Stir frequently.
Strain through cheese cloth or burlap and dilute to
make 200 gallons. Or use commercial brand.

TOBACCO EXTRACT

For plant lice or thrips.

“Black leaf 40” or nicotine sulphate,

2 to 3 lbs. ; water, 200 gals.

It is better to add soap to the water to make a
good suds.

Sometimes the aphis will curl up the ends of
leaves so that no spray will reach them, in which
case the only thing to do is to cut off infested ends
of twigs.

Use FLOATINE for covering tree wounds. Inexpensive and efficient. We sell it.

ARSENATE OF LEAD

For codling moth in apples or pears, and also for
pear slug, canker worm and other chewing insects.
The commercial brands are reliable. Usually 2^2
pounds to 50 gallons water is the proper strength.
THE PEERLESS SPRAY
We cannot speak too highly of this spray if it is
properly used. The stronger insecticides must be
applied when the trees are dormant, which, in a
wet winter is often impossible unless the applica-
tion is made very early. The Peerless is so com-
pounded that, diluted to proper strength, it has no
injurious effect upon blossoms or foliage, although
it is repellant to insect life for a long time after
spraying. If a lime-sulphur spray is used during
winter, always follow with the Peerless in the
spring and early summer, or use the Peerless in
fall and in spring. It is a tree cleanser, and no in-
sects seem to thrive or continue to be a pest if it
is regularly applied. It costs less than one cent a
gallon. For sale by Peerless Spray Co., F. L. Meier,
manager. Linden, Cal., or by us.

KEROSENE EMULSION
This is very useful for controlling scale and most
pests that bother the trees and shrubs in town lots
or small orchards. It is very efficient and can be
applied any time, if diluted with more water when
trees are in full leaf.

Kerosene 2 gals.

Hard, soft or whale-oil soap.... ^ lb.

Water (soft) 1 gal.

l)issolve the soap in hot water, add the kerosene;
agitate thoroughly while hot with a hand pump by
pumping back into the solution until it becomes
thick and creamy. Then dilute by adding 8 to 15
gallons of water, according to the time of the year.

REAL ESTATE

PRICES

Our prices will be found to be as reasonable as
conditions justify. Increased cost of labor, increased
cost of imported seedlings and the many added ex-
penses incident to quarantine regulations combine
to make the margin of profit much less in the nur-
sery business. Cheap trees may be offered for sale;
the}’- are generally “cheap” in more ways than one.
Orchards of trees grown in our nurseries have been
bearing for over a quarter of a century in Califor-
nia, and they speak for themselves.

THE HOME ORCHARD

Our long experience and familiarity with Califor-
nia conditions generally, enable us to state with as-
surance that any selection of varieties left to us will
be sure to give satisfaction. Many of the most valu-
able fruits listed by nurserymen generally, were in-
troduced by us, either as California seedlings or
among European importations. Our large experi-
mental orchards on our new grounds are for the
purpose of “trying out” varieties that are recom-
mended, to determine as to their value compared
with others that are better known.

Three types of French Prunes, the largest is “Coates”

For nearly 30 years the senior member of our firm has endeavored to show that there were several dis-
tinct varieties propagated in California under the name of French Prune. The late Felix Gillet also argued
in the same way, and was demonstrating the fact when he was called away. The increased value of prune
orchards, if the fruit would run uniformly to large sizes, is apparent to any one. All prune growers know
that occasionally may be found a tree which bears fruit of extra large size, of different shape, and which
ripens earlier. They also know that some of the finest and thriftiest trees always bear small prunes, which
ripen late, and are known as sticktights. Unfortunately, it is this small variety of prune which has been
extensively propagated, for the simple reason that when the nurseryman would send his man to a prune
orchard to cut buds or grSfts, he would get a large percentage, naturally, from the thrifty looking trees,
and so, unintentionally go on propagating the small “sticktights.”

When we reorganized our nurseries, we started by searching for these larger and different prunes in
various orchards in the State during the fruiting season, and have now propagated from them on to our
own trees, from which we cut buds for propagating in the nursery. One grower (whose name can be given
if desired), is immensely pleased with the prunes already bearing (at five years old) on his trees of “Coates”
variety. Another grower sent us samples of the prunes to show how much larger they were than the average.

This is, in brief, what we mean by the “Coates” French Prune. The price for the trees is no higher, so
that the wise and careful planter should place his order quickly before the trees are all engaged. Next
season we shall offer several other real French prunes of very marked and startling improvement, entirely

distinct. Prices on Myrobolan, Almond, Peach or Apricot Root

COATES FRENCH PRUNE. This is the real
D'Ente or “French” Prune, such as is grown in
southwestern France. It is more pear shaped, rip-
ens early, and with good cultivation will run
evenly 50/60 to the pound dried. We have for
years made a selection of this type from trees
scattered in prune orchards throughout the State,
having now the parent trees on our own place.

All of our Coates French prune trees are of this
variety. Such trees are worth double the price,
but we do not ask more than the ruling rate for
any first-class stock.

CLAIRAC MAMMOTH. Gillet’s strain of Impe-
rial. The largest true prune. This variety has al-
ways been a good bearer,

THE WALNUT

Next to the prune, the walnut is our great fruit specialty. We have our own bearing orchard of 25 acres
consisting mainly of Mayette, Concord and Franquette, but also a very large assortment of all the best mar-
ket varieties, several being of our own importation from France. In our Walnut Nursery we have every
season several thousand trees budded and grafted on selected Northern California Black M’alnut seedlings.
Nothing can be better than the native Black Walnut for a stock; to use any “hybrid” is, at the least, ex-
perimental and therefore uncertain.

PRICE ON CALIFORNIA BLACK ROOT

Each Per 10 Per 100

6-8 ft $1.00 $8.50 $70.00

4-6 ft 85 7.00 60.00

3-4 ft. (stocky) 85 7.00 60.00

A few smaller sizes at lower price.

SAN JOSE MAYETTE or WILTZ. First offered
for sale by us by arrangement with Mr. Wiltz;
our orehard has in it many trees of this variety
propagated by Mr. Wiltz and now in bearing.
Tree a very late bloomer, of rather straggling
habit. In our orchard, on heavy blaek soil, next
to Concord, it is the heaviest bearer. Nuts almost
round, very large and smooth, and first-class in
every way; blight resistant. These three varieties
are standard and unexcelled for Central and
Northern California. There are other good wal-
nuts, but they are in the experimental stage. We
have many varieties in bearing in our own or-

chard, several being direct importations from
Grenoble, France.

CONCORD. Introduced and named by us in 1908.
Tree of strong growth, with very large and lux-
uriant foliage. Bears while very young, and is a
continuous heavy cropper. Nuts are large, round-
ish-oblong, smooth, very well filled and of excel-
lent quality'. By actual comparison the nuts have
remained sweet the second year for a much long-
er time than any others of the leading varieties,
and also have a heavier weight of meats. So far
the Concord has proved blight resistant, although
the original tree is nearly 30 years old.

are suited for one or all of these purposes. The
time of flowering is noted so that it can be seen
that food for the bee is furnished almost all the
year. It is very necessary for the fruit-grower to en-
courage the bees, so that varieties of eucalyptus
should be more generally planted. The bark of many
eucalyptus sheds freely; otherwise marked “persist-
ent.” This is the stock for which we received a Gold
Medal at the P. P. I. E.

ROSES

Our roses are mostly grown from cuttings, which
we find to produce as good flowers, and to be quite
as vigorous as those budded on wild stocks, and
there is no trouble with wild suckers from the roots.
Only those that will not root from cuttings are bud-
ded on other stocks. “Climbing” often only denotes
a stronger habit of growth, and such may be kept in
bush form by pruning. Prices, unless otherwise not-
ed, for either pot or field grown, 25c. ea., $2.25 per
10, $20 per 100.

HEDGE PLANTS

Hedges may be either formal or of wild, natural

appearance. We grow a large variety of plants suit-
able for any conditions or requirements.

BOX (e.). Several varieties, from $5 to $25 per
100. The dwarf varieties are used for bordering
walks, flower beds, etc.

EVONYMUS (e.). One of the best for bright,
hardy hedges, and requiring less water.

EVONYMUS PULCHELLUS (e.). Dwarf habit,
leaves small, very dark green, and especially good
for a low, compact hedge. Price of these plants,
in great variety, from $5 to $15 per 100.

BERBERIS (e.d.). In which is included MA-
HONIA. The common Berberis, B. THUN-
BERGII and B. PURPUREA, with its deep
purple leaves, are very desirable for hedges. The
leaves remain until quite late, being almost ever-
green in California. With their bright firs, and
berries, they are very attractive. The strictly ever-
green Barberries, such as DARWIN, STENO-
PHYLLA, ILICIFOLIA, are beautiful as indi-
vidual shrubs, or as hedges, as are the “Oregon
grape,” or Mahon.ia (Berberis aquifolium) and our
native species, Berberis Californicum. The common
Berberis ranges in price from $5 per 100, the
evergreen species being more expensive.

ACACIAS (e.). Such as CULTRIFORMIS, ARM-
ATA, VERTICILLATA, make very handsome,
free-growing hedges, but require plenty of room.
Price from $15 to $25 per 100, but they should be
not less than 6 ft. apart.

DIOSMA (e.). With its fine foliage, delicate white
flrs., and pleasant aroma, forms a lovely hedge
for a small garden. $10 to $25 per 100.

CYTISUS and GENISTA, broom (e.). These make a
most attractive hedge, but grow to considerable
size. $15 to $25 per 100.

ULEX or EUROPEAN WHIN or GORSE (e.).
Makes a grand hedge, looking better planted in
irregular lines, and allowed plenty of room. $10
to $25 per 100.

ESCALLONIA (e.). A very handsome tall hedge,
leaves dark, glossy green foliage, and pink or
white flrs. Price for large plants, $5 to $25 per
100.

PITTOSPORUM (e.). In several varieties. These
make a most attractive bright-green hedge, grow-
ing quite tall if so desired. Price, $5 per 100 for
small plants, and up to $25 for large, pot-grown
specimens.

LEPTOSPERMUM (e.). Very broad, spreading
hedges or screens; is one of the best; evergreen,
bright foliage, small white flrs. $15 to $25 per 100,
large plants.

MELALEUCA and CALLISTEMON, or bottle
BRUSH. Grow in similar shape to preceding, but
bear more highly colored flrs. $15 to $25 per 100.

PRUNUS ILICIFOLIA. holly-leaved cherry (^.).
All things considered, perhaps the first choice for
an evergreen Californian hedge. Price from $6.50
to $15 per 100.

PRUNUS INTEGRIFOLIA. catalina island
CHERRY (e.). Leaves much larger than preceding,
otherwise similar. $15 to $30 per 100.

CRATAEGUS CRENULATA. evergreen thorn
(e.). White flrs. and scarlet berries; very hand-
some for tall hedge or screen. $10 to $25 per 100.

LIGUSTRUM. PRIVET (e.). These are in several
varieties, foliage dark green to golden. $5 to $10
per 100.

COTONEASTER {e.d.)’ The tall growing varieties
used sometimes as a stiff hedge; handsomely ber-
ried. Price, $20 to $30 per 100.

TOYON. CHRISTMAS BERRY, HETEROMELES (fl.e.).
This would make a most attractive, broad growing
hedge. $12.50 to $20 per 100.

VERONICA (e.). A most beautiful hedge plant,
but requires more moisture than most of the
others; flrs. generally blue or purple. $15 to $25
per 100 for large plants.

SPIREAS (d.). With their graceful habit and
bright flrs., white or rose colored, are particularly
effective. $15 to $25 for large plants.

ROSES (d.e.). Several varieties make grand hedges,
amongst the evergreens the Cherokees and Bank-
sias being the best.

ENGLISH IVIES. HONEYSUCKLE and mueh-
LENBECKiA, make splendid hedges, when having
the support of a wire or some low fence. $7.50
to $15 per 100.

Many other climbers may in this manner be made
into most beautiful and unique hedges.

For covering walls or buildings, without support
other than their self-clinging tendency, FKZUS
REPENS, AMPELOPSIS VEITCHII (Boston
Ivy), and AMPELOPSIS SEMPERVIRENS are
the best. The FICUS and* the last named arc
both evergreen, the latter being quite new and ex-
ceedingly graceful. Price, $10 to $20 per 100.

All except the slow - growing varieties, such as
BOX, HOLLY-LEAVED CHERRY, should be
planted about 3 ft. apart.

CUPRESSUS MACROCARPA, MONTEREY CY-
PRESS. A well known and popular fast-growing
hedge plant or wind screen. $2.50 per 100.

CALYCANTHUS OCCIDENTALIS. Sweet-scent-
ed shrub. With its large, glossy leaves and beauti-
ful rich red or terra-cotta flrs., this would make a
most unique hedge; blooms all summer; a native
Californian. $20 per 100 for large bushes.

AVENUE TREES
DECIDUOUS

A sample of our fine stock of Deciduous
Shade Trees

For prices, etc., see pages 13 to 24

Among the most suitable trees that shed their

leaves in winter are the following:

PLATANUS ORIENTALIS. plane or European
SYCAMORE. Leaves very large, rather light green;
tree strong grower. Succeeds well at the Coast or
in the warmer valleys; well adapted for city plant-
ing.

SORBUS AUCUPARIA. mountain ash. Tree up-
right, rather slender; leaves dark green, finely cut;
large panicles of white blossoms, followed by
bunches of orange-red berries. This tree is better
suited to the Coast counties, or moderately warm
localities. It is exceedingly handsome.

LABURNUM VULGARIS, golden chain. A mod-
erate grower, especially adapted to Bay and Coast
conditipns. Leaves pinnate, light green; firs, in
drooping clusters, pea-shaped and bright yellow.
Strikingly beautiful either as a specimen tree or
in avenue form.

LIRIODENDRON TULIPIFERA. tulip tree.
Compact grower; leaves large, glossy green; firs,
bell^ shaped, large, yellow, with lilac spots. Very
desirable as a street tree in California.

POPULUS. poplar. Of these there are several to
be recommended. Perhaps the most beautiful is the
SILVER POPLAR, with upper surface of leaves
steely-blue and underside almost white. But little
known in California, but succeeding anywhere.

LOMBARDY POPLAR. The tall, monument-lik*.
variety; very attractive and stately.

GOLDEN POPLAR. Less vigorous in habit; rather
spreading, with leaves golden-yellow.

ROBINIA. LOCUST. The umbrella locust, so named
from its compact, rather low head; is thornless
and one of our most useful avenue trees, giving
abundance of shade. The black locust is more
rapid in growth and succeeds anywhere. Several va-
rieties, having pink and rose colored firs., are
very beautiful, amongst which are decaisneana,
viscosa, hispida langleyi- The whole family is pe-
culiarly adapted to California conditions, by se-
lection of which the padres of early days showed
their wisdom and knowledge in things horticul-
tural.

FRAXINUS AMERICANA, ash. The ash takes
very well to our climatic conditions, and should
be largely planted as an avenue tree.

FRAXINUS VELUTINA. Arizona ash. A most
beautiful and useful tree, standing well under arid
conditions.

MORUS. MULBERRY. The Russian mulberry, or the
white, or any of the black fruiting varieties, make
a glorious shade, and thrive in a warm climate.
They should be freely planted about stock corrals,
chicken yards, or in odd corners about farm
buildings; or as a highway shade tree in the
warmer valleys.

JUGLANS CALIFORNICA. walnut. The native
walnut is about the hardiest avenue tree we have,
that is, it will stand the most abuse. It is very
handsome and rapid in growth, doing well almost
anywhere. It would no doubt be better to plant
the best grafted varieties of walnut, although
they would cost more and would require more
care.

CATALPA. The Western catalpa, if pruned, makes
a most beautiful and serviceable tree. This “if” is,
or should be, both comprehensive and emphatic.
All shade trees should be kept pruned while
young. The catalpa is most profuse in flowering,
large panicles of white or lilac firs., dotted with
yellow. CATALPA BUNGEI is a Japanese vari-
ety with very dense, round _ head, suitable for
small avenues or formal parking.

ULMUS. ELM. Perhaps the grandest shade tree, or
second only to the oak. ' U. VEGETA, a variety
of the English Elm, is really about the best in
California, or U. AMERICANA, which is more
spreading. Both are suitable for large avenues or
highways, and are not liable to sucker.

TILIA. LINDEN. The American or bass-wood, and
the European variety, both succeed well, except
in the hot interior valley.

PRUNUS PISSARDI. purple-leaved plum. Where
a deep purple effect is desired, nothing is better;
tree is rather a small grower, and very suitable
for grouping in parks.

AESCULUS. CHESTNUT, HORSE CHESTNUT. Ill Europe
perhaps the most striking avenue tree. If given
plenty of root moisture, it will succeed almost
anywhere in California. An avenue of the trees in
bloom is a sight never to be forgotten.

ACER, maples. The silver maple, scarlet maple,
box elder, the native large - leaved maple, and
English maple (A. Campestris), are amongst the
most popular, useful and beautiful shade trees we
can plant. In our hot, dry summers they need
abundant watering .while young.

EVERGREEN

QUERCUS. OAKS. The native live oaks should be
one of the main trees for averiue planting. They
grow very rapidly under ordinary care. Many
other_ species should be used which may be found
described elsewhere in this catalogue.

SCHINUS MOLLE. pepper tree. A grand tree for
all-the-year-round shade; another variety.^ S. ter-
ebinthus, is even more beautiful, but a little ten-
der. except near the Coast.

ACACIA. This comprises 20 or 30 different species,
on which we won the Silver Medal at P. P. I. E.
A. melanoxylon is the tall, upright-growing vari-
ety, and dealbata, moliissima, _ or decurrens is
typical of those of more spreading habit.

We draw plans for Landscape Gardening

LEONARD COAT^ NURSERY COMPANY, MORGANHILL, CAL.

EVERGREEN — Continued

GREVILLEA or silk oak is very ornamental, with
its fern-like foliage and orange-scarlet firs.

EUCALYPTUS. Almost endless in variety. We
propagate about 50 species, receiving ^ the Gold
Medal at the P. P. I. E. There are varieties suit-
able for all requirements, several of the slow or
moderate growers being more ornamental and
better adapted for street planting.

SEQUOIA SEMPERVIRENS. redwood. The Cali-
fornia evergreen which of all others should be
most extensively used for avenues and parking.

ARBUTUS MENZIISI. madrone. After many
years of experimenting, we have succeeded in
growing a large stock of this most beautiful na-
tive tree; what could be more striking than an
avenue along some of the Oakland or peninsular
boulevards.

CUPRESSUS ARIZONICA. ARIZONA cypress. Pe-
culiarly adapted to California arid conditions; fol-
iage a lovely blue-green.

CUPRESSUS SEMPERVIRENS. Italian cypress.
For formal effect the most useful.

CASUARINA. beef-wood. Very graceful trees,
somewhat resembling the pine family; desirable as
evergreen where a dense shade is not required.

CORDYLINE. dracena palm. These plants are
quite hardy, and present a handsome semi-tropic
appearance as approach to residence.

PINUS INSIGNIS. MONTEREY PINE. For a mas-
sive, stately effect, somewhat somber, nothing can
be better.

PALMS. The best hardy palm for the grandest ef-
fect is PHOENIX CANARIENSIS. The palm
has been neglected of late years, but it should be
remembered that nothing adds more to the beauty
and attractiveness of the California landscape, or
appeals more strongly to the visitor, than an av-
enue of palms. We propagate many varieties.

Native California Trees and Shrubs

Our nurseries are recognized as Headquarters for native trees and shrubs. We
grow the evergreen varieties in pots, several times transplanted, so that the root system
is perfect. At tnis time we have over 100 different species, and make yearly additions.
Many trees of native growth are very difficult to propagate, but we have succeeded in
growing some that have hitherto been very scarce under cultivation. All of them thrive
with but little water, if soil is kept loose; most of them delight in epen sunshine, though
a few prefer partial shade and moister conditions.

A few that we call special attention to are the following, named in alphabetical
order, and, with others, found described, with prices, in our new catalogue.

A MORPH A CALI FORMICA, or Indigo shrub. Leaves resemble those of the Black
Locust, the flowers being in the form of a long, very close raceme, dark purple, almost
black, with golden stamens. It is deciduous, and may be grown either as a shrub or
small tree.

ADENOSTOMA FASCICU LATU M, or Chaparral. Grows in profusion on dry hill-sides,
and makes a most charming shrub, with its fine needle-like leaves and delicate white
flowers borne on the terminal shoots. It is the cnly native Californian belonging to the
Heath family.

AESCULUS CALI FORMICA. The well-known Buckeye, which should be in every col-
lection.

ARBUTUS MEMZIESII. Madrone. This is the mest typical Californian tree in a large
part of the Coast Range, with its very large glossy leaves, light colored bark, and wax-
like white flowers which are followed with large clusters of crimson berries. It should
be used largely for parking, and we now have a splendid stock which would enable us
to quote at hundred or even thousand rates.

ARBUTUS UMEDO. Strawberry tree. While not a native is very closely allied to
Madrone and similar in appearance but of smaller growth.

AUDIBERTIA, or Sage. In several species, noted for their arcmatic fragrance.

ASA RUM. Wild Ginger. With its large round leaves and purple flowers near the

ground, makes a unique plant in shady places near water.

BERBERIS CALI FORM 1C UM. Barberry, called locally “Oregon Grape” which it resem-
bles, but the leaves are smaller and much brighter in color. It is the most beautiful low
growing evergreen shrub, and quite rare as the birds get the seeds before they are ripe;
we have a good stock, however.

CALYCAMTHUS. All-spice. Leaves very large, and the large purplish or terra-cotta
flowers appear almost continuously for several months.

CARPEMTERIA or TREE AMEMOME. Evergreen shrub growing in the high mouh-
tains. Its flowers are pure white, very large, with cluster of golden stamens, and quite
fragrant. One of the very choicest of native shrubs.

CLEMATIS or Virgin’s Bower. Our wild Clematis is very ornamental in flower or seed.
CEAMOTHUS or Wild Lilac. Of these we have eight species. They grow wild in the
driest locations, and are a characteristic feature of our California hill-sides, with their
profusion of fragrant blue or white flowers.

CASCARA SAGRADA, sometimes called “Wild Coffee”. Makes a very handsome ever-
green shrub, growing to large size. It is especially noteworthy in the Fall, with its
masses of large purplish-black berries.

CERCIS OCCIDEMTALIS or Red Bud. Few people are aware that we have this as a
native; it resembles the Eastern species closely, except that it is lower growing and its
leaves are smaller. It is found in Yolo and Solano Counties.

CH AM AECYPARIS LAWSOMIAMA. Lawson Cypress. One of our handsomest coni-
fers, with spreading drooping habit, attaining great height.

CHI LOPS IS LI M EAR IS or Mimbres. A deciduous tree growing in or along gulches or
arroyos in the desert. Its leaves are very narrow or willow-like, but the flowers are
strikingly handsome, large, tubular, yellowish, with white throat and lilac spots. It
may be grown into a good-sized tree, or kept in a large pot or tub it has a most remark-
able tropical appearance when in bloom; belongs to the Bignonia family.

CUPRESSUS ARIZOMICA. Grows almost on California border and is a Cypress partic-
ularly adapted to dry, sunny locations; foliage graceful, and a delightful blue-green.
FRAXIMUS DIPETALA. Flowering Ash.

FRAXIMUS VELUTIMA; another near neighbor from Arizona, but a tree well adapted
to California conditions.

FREMOMTIA CALIFORMICA. Thought by some to be the handsomest native shrub.
The underside of the leaves are a golden bronze color and the flowers are a very rich
yellow, petals large and waxy. It forms a large shrub, and is found in the Sierra Ne-
vada Mountains. In the Spring time the large plants, 8 or 10 ft. high in our ornamental
grounds, form a sight never to be forgotten.

GARRYA ELLIPTICA. Silk Tassel Tree. A most beautiful evergreen, leaves dark
glaucous green, resembling the Live Oak. The male flowers are in the form of catkins
which are often a foot long or sometimes reaching II ft. This tree should be largely used
in parking; it is distinctively Californian.

H ETEROM ELES ARBUTIFOLIA. Toyon or Christmas Berry. Well-known and its
planting can never be over-done.

HOSACKIA. Wild Broom. While all the Brooms and the European Gorse do so well in
California, our native Broom should not be neglectei'^. It is of very graceful habit, and
grows well on very dry banks.

LON ICE RA CALIFORNICA. Wild Honeysuckle. Everyone who loves the woods must
have noticed our fragrant native honeysuckle, and its dense clusters of vivid scarlet or
orange berries.

LAVATERA. Tree Mallow; most useful for a tall hedge or wind-break, and very hand-
some with its large rose-colored flowers; grows easily in the driest places.

LIPPI A NODIFEORA. A native Lippia retaining its green color much longer than the
imported species. A most excellent substitute for lawn grass and easily taken care of.
MIMULUS GLUTINOSUM. Shrubby Mimulus. Flowers bright canary yellow; a very
handsome shrub if kept trimmed.

M ICROM ERIA. Yerba Buena. Perhaps the most typically Californian, “Yerba Buena”
being the name of what was afterwards San Francisco. A creeping plant, very aromatic,
with small lilac flowers; for shady banks or hanging baskets.

NICOTIAN A GLANCA. Tree Tobacco. Supposed to have been originally introduced
from Argentina. Grows wild in many places from Santa Clara Co. south. We have
found trees 20 ft. high on the western slope of the Coast Range in very dry spots.
Leaves large, very smooth and glossy blue-green, which do not hold the dust; flowers
long, tubular, yellow, in drooping racemes. Very effective, and recommended as a hand-
some background or for filling in along gulches or creek banks, as it is absolutely
drought-resistant.

PALMS. The noble Washingtonia and Erythea are both native, the latter growing in
Guadalupe Island.

PINES. Monterey Pine and Yellow Pine (Ponderosa) are typical.

PROSOPIS JULIFLORA or Mosquite, is a most interesting, useful and attractive tree;
should be in every collection, and delights in warm, dry locations.

PRUNUS ILICIFOLIA and I NTEG Rl FOLI A, or Evergreen Wild Cherries. The latter
has the larger leaves and makes a taller tree; the former makes the most desirable
hedge in California for a stiff, rather formal effect. As individual specimens they are
very handsome, or grouped for parking are most attractive and suitable.

QUERCUS. The oak family, of which we cultivate many varieties. The Live Oak
should be largely planted in parking or as an avenue tree; nothing is better, and Cali-
fornia without its Live Oaks would hardly be California.

RHUS. A most interesting family, even if it does include “Poison Oak”. Rhus laurina
or Sumach is very beautiful as a shrub or small tree; also the squaw-berry, R. trilobata,
and others.

RIBES. Including both Wild Currant and Wild Gooseberry; these form very beautiful
shrubs, the former, from its aroma, being often called Incense shrub; it blooms almost
continuously.

ROM NEVA COULTERI. Matilija Poppy. The Queen of Flowers. We specialize on
this plant, and supply it wholesale to several nurseries. Our hill-side through the sum-
mer is a wonderful sight, with tens of thousands of these magnificent flowers, 6 to 7
inches in diameter. It forms a semi-woody shrub, requires plenty of room in a sunny
location, and does not like much water; should not be planted on a lawn.

SEQUOIA. REDWOOD. We grow both species, and the Coast Redwood in thousand
lots, on which we can make very attractive prices. Needless to say this is the one tree,
that for beauty and utility stands ahead of any other native Californian. It should be
largely planted.

TORREYA CALIFORNICA or Tumion; Nutmeg tree, from shape of fruit. We have a
fine stock in pots or this rare tree.

UMBELLULARIA CALIFORNICA. Laurel, Bay Tree, Pepper Wood. Another of those
spicy and typical native trees.

YUCCA WHIPPLEI. Whoever has noticed the tall spikes of large, white waxy flowers
on the hill-sides from San Luis Obispo County south would certainly want to see the
same nearer home. Why not plant this Yucca freely on the hill-sides further north, as
an additional adornment to so many beautiful homes?

We grow this stock in quantity and are prepared to fill large orders for
landscaping or parking.

T wo Good Reasons for Buying
Coates Prune Trees

FIRST:

Our trees are grown on absolutely new land, far
removed from any orchards, on the Island Farm,
Betabel Station, S. P. Co., 3 miles below Sargent.
There is therefore no danger of root disease of any
kind.

SECOND:

Every tree is propagated from our own trees
bearing the large pear-shaped fruit.
