FOREWORD 

Those  who  have  received  previous  “Garden  Aristocrats”  (1934,  1935  and  1936)  are 
familiar  with  our  desire  to  avoid  the  usual  nursery  catalog  style.  Our  idea  is  to  de¬ 
scribe  in  each  issue  as  accurately  as  possible  a  limited  number  of  the  best  things,  omit 
all  “ballyhoo”  and  make  the  booklet  worth  saving  for  reference.  It  is  very  gratifying 
to  observe  how  many  have  done  this. 

By  the  way,  we  still  have  a  fair  supply  of  “Garden  Aristocrats,  1936”  and  will 
send  a  copy  upon  request. 

For  convenience  we  have  this  year  divided  it  into  three  sections: 

Part  I  is  devoted  to  novelties  of  very  recent  introduction,  some  being  offered  this 
season  for  the  first  time. 

Part  II  covers  noteworthy  plants,  some  of  which  are  comparatively  new. 

Part  III  is  simply  a  price  list,  without  descriptions,  of  our  principal  items  which 
are  not  covered  in  the  first  two  parts.  It  is  assumed  that  these  are  well 
enough  known  so  that  we  do  not  need  to  describe  them. 

Our  attention  is  devoted  almost  entirely  to  woody  plants.  We  again  emphasize 
the  important  point  that  these  make  up  the  permanent  part  of  the  garden;  you  live 
with  them  “year  in  and  year  out”  so  why  not  have  the  finest  things? 

It  will  be  a  pleasure  for  us  to  have  you  visit  our  nursery  which  is  located  on  the 
Oakland-San  Jose  Highway,  a  little  over  a  mile  north  of  the  city  limits  of  San  Jose. 
Coming  down  the  Peninsula  you  should  cross  the  Southern  Pacific  tracks  at  Santa 
Clara  S.  P.  Station;  this  (Brokaw)  road  ends  at  the  nursery.  When  the  Bay  Shore 
Highway  is  finished  to  San  Jose  it  will  cross  the  Brokaw  Road  at  the  magnificent  row 
of  old  Elms.  Turn  to  the  left  there. 

PART  I. 

BROAD  LEAVED  EVERGREENS 

RED  ABELIA  (Abelia  floribunda).  Remarkable  for  its  astonishingly  long  rosy  red 
flowers  which  are  IV2  to  2  inches  in  length  and  are  borne  in  unbelievable  profusion. 
Close  to  the  sea  it  blooms  all  the  year  around;  otherwise  for  quite  a  long  period  in 
spring.  In  sunny  districts  it  must  have  at  least  partial  shade  and  plenty  of  water.  At 
first  its  growth  is  almost  prostrate  but  later  it  makes  erect  but  arching  shoots  which 
enable  it  to  gain  height  gradually,  but  it  will  probably  never  get  more  than  four  feet 
tall.  We  do  not  yet  know  whether  it  will  be  hardy  in  Oregon  and  Washington,  but  it 
seems  to  be  anywhere  in  the  settled  parts  of  California.  Gal.  can  114-2  ft.  $1.00,  I-IV2 
ft.  75c;  pot  grown  114-2  ft.  60c. 

ABUTILON  VITIFOLIUM.  Grows  quickly  to  a  large  shrub  which  bears  a  profuse 
crop  of  large,  bell  shaped,  light  blue  flowers  up  to  314  in.  wide.  Pot  grown  4-6  in.  25c. 


ASTER  FRUTICOSA.  This  dainty  slender-branched  rather  compact  shrub  grows  only 

about  3  ft.  tall  and  bears  a  profusion  of  daisy- 
like  pinkish  lavender  flowers  in  late  spring  and 
early  summer.  One  of  those  things  that  are  uni¬ 
versally  admired.  Pot  grown  8-12  in.  50c. 


RAFHINIA  GALPINI.  Unlike  the  more  famil¬ 
iar  Bauhinias,  this  is  a  half  climbing  shrub  with 
flowers  ranging  from  terra  cotta  to  brick  red.  It 
is  from  South  Africa  and  we  do  not  yet  know 
whether  it  is  fully  hardy  here  or  not,  but  it  surely 
is  attractive.  Pot  grown  6-8  in.  35c. 


BOWK  ER I A  GERRARDIANA.  This  is  a  fair¬ 
ly  vigorous  South  African  shrub  which  may  attain 
as  much  as  6-8  ft.  The  leaves  are  suggestive  of 
Heliotrope;  flowers  are  white,  tubular  and  borne 
very  freely.  It  is  reported  to  stand  considerable 
frost.  Pot  grown  6-8  in.  75c. 


BRUNFELSIA  MACRANTHA  (B.  grandiflora). 

This  is  a  decided  improvement  on  B.  calycina 
which  is  described  in  the  second  part  of  this  book¬ 
let.  This  form  has  larger  leaves,  more  open  habit, 
and  much  larger  flowers  up  to  as  much  as  214 
in.  wide.  Grafted  plants  in  gal.  cans  8-12  in.  $1.50. 


BLUE  ATLAS  CEDAR 
Cedrus  atlantica  glauca 


2 


CALOTHAMNUS  RUPESTRIS.  This  loose 
growing  shrub  has  its  branches  densely  covered 
with  needle  like  leaves.  The  flowers  are  some¬ 
what  like  those  of  “Bottle  Brush”  with  brilliant 
crimson  stamens.  It  has  the  appearance  of  being 
perfectly  hardy  here.  Pot  grown  1-114  ft.  60c, 

8-12  in.  50c. 

CHIRONIA  LINOIDES  (C.  ixifera).  This  beauti¬ 
ful  little  half-shrub  is  suitable  for  rock  gardens 
or  for  any  place  in  the  garden  where  a  small 
plant  is  appropriate.  It  does  not  get  more  than 
1 l/4  ft.  tail  with  a  compact  rounded  outline.  Leaves 
are  about  like  those  of  carnations.  In  summer 
it  literally  covers  itself  with  rose  pink  flowers 
about  %  in.  wide.  We  have  noticed  that  every¬ 
one  who  sees  this  likes  it.  Pot  grown  8-12  in.  60c. 

CISTUS  CORBARIENSIS.  A  beautiful  addition 
to  our  lists  of  small  evergreen  shrubs,  which  is 
attractive  at  any  time  for  its  crinkly  foliage  and 
especially  so  in  spring  with  its  wealth  of  dainty 
pure  white  flowers  with  golden  stamens.  All 
who  see  it  admire  it.  Pot  grown  12-15  in.  50c. 

CISTUS  LADANIFERUS  MACULATUS.  After  many  years  it  develops  that  the  plants 
which  have  masqueraded  under  this  name  are  really  Cistus  cyprius.  The  genuine 
article  is  larger,  stronger  growing,  and  with  flowers  about  twice  as!  wide,  up  to  3  or 
4  in.,  which  also  are  white  with  a  red  blotch  at  the  base  of  each  petal.  Pot  grown 
1-1%  ft.  50c,  8-12  in.  25c. 

SPOTTED  ORCHID  ROCKROSE  (Cistus  purpureus).  It  is  hard  to  understand  why 
this  beautiful  Rockrose  which  has  been  popular  in  England  for  a  century  has  just 
reached  California.  It  is  very  strong  and  vigorous  and  at  blooming  time  practically 
covers  itself  with  satiny  orchid-colored  flowers  nearly  three  inches  wide.  They  have 
five  petals,  each  with  a  deep  red  spot  near  the  base.  We  recommend  this  unreservedly. 
Gal.  cans  1-1 14  ft.  75c;  pot  grown  1-1 14  ft.  60c. 

CISTUS  SILVER  PINK.  This  has  recently  been  imported  from  England  where  it 
has  quickly  attained  great  popularity.  It  makes  a  rather  compact  shrub  of  only  medium 
growth  with  grayish-green  leaves.  The  flowers  are  superb;  of  good  size  and  a  charm¬ 
ing  silver  pink  color  without  any  spots  at  the  base  of  petals.  We  have  an  idea  that  it 
will  become  as  popular  here  as  in  England.  Pot  grown  8-12  in.  85c. 

CONVOLVULUS  CNEORUM.  Highly  valued  for  its  remarkably  beautiful  foliage. 
The  green  leaves  are  well  covered  with  silky  white  hairs  so  that  the  general  effect  is 
glistening  silver.  This  color  is  maintained  throughout  the  year.  The  flowers  are  of 
the  usual  Morning  Glory  type,  a  little  over  an  inch  wide;  white  with  yellow  eye  and 
pinkish  on  the  outside.  It  blooms  very  persistently.  Pot  grown  strong  plants  75c, 
smaller  30c. 

COTONEASTER  GLABRATA.  This  is  a  vigorous  strong  growing  Cotoneaster  which 
will  probably  make  a  large  bush.  The  leaves  are  2  or  3  inches  long.  When  it  carries 
its  crop  of  bright  red  berries,  it  is  simply  gorgeous.  They  are  produced  in  large  clus¬ 
ters  all  along  the  branches  which  arch  with  their  weight.  Seedlings,  pot  grown  8-12 
in.  50c. 

COTONEASTER  RUBENS.  Imported  from  France  under  government  permit.  Growth 
is  almost  prostrate.  Leaves  small  and  evergreen.  In  a  general  way  it  is  like  C.  buxi- 
folia,  but  the  red  berries  have  a  better  color  which  is  developed  as  early  as  June. 
Grafted  plants,  pot  grown  1-1 14  ft.  75c. 

MITCHELL  BROOMS  (Cytisus  hybrids).  For  more  complete  information  see,  in 
February,  1936  number  of  Sunset  Magazine,  an  article  by  their  originator,  the  well 
known  horticulturist,  Sydney  B.  Mitchell.  Out  of  a  large  number  of  beautiful  seedlings 
Mr.  Mitchell  selected  the  five  he  considered  best  and  named  them  for  various  colleges 
in  the  State.  The  following  are  his  verbatim  descriptions: 

CALIFORNIA.  Of  medium  height,  about  3  to  4  ft.  and  rather  spreading;  stan¬ 
dards  rosy  white,  reverse  rose.  Wings  glowing  rose,  deepening  to  the  top  of  the 
keel.  Exceptionally  attractive  and  clean  in  its  brilliant  pink  effect. 

POMONA.  Very  tall  and  vigorous,  running  to  8  ft.  high  with  arching  stems.  Stan¬ 
dards  yellow  paling  to  white,  reverse  rose.  Wings  amber  orange,  keel  yellow. 


FOUNTAIN  DEODAR 
Cedrus  deodara  fontinalis 


3 


ST.  MARY’S.  Medium  height,  spreading.  Whole  flower  pure  white. 

SAN  FRANCISCO.  In  growth  between  California  and  Pomona.  Standards  rosy 
red,  reverse  somewhat  darker.  Wings  same  color,  but  deepening  to  rich  vel¬ 
vety  red  towards  the  keel.  The  reddest  in  effect  I  have  seen,  more  so  than  any 
of  the  English  or  Irish  hybrids.  Very  free  flowering  with  long  season. 

STANFORD.  Quite  upright  and  more  rigid  in  growth  than  the  others.  Standards 
bronze  yellow  to  flesh,  reverse  bronze  rose.  Wings  bright  orange  red,  very 
prominent  golden  keel.  Quite  the  largest  flower  of  the  set.  Mid-season  to  late. 
These  brooms  bloom  so  profusely  as  to  show  almost  no  stem  when  in  flower.  Flowering 
season  from  March  to  May. 

Cultural  Note.  When  once  established  these  brooms  require  no  summer  watering 
at  all  with  me.  They  move  very  badly  indeed  after  they  get  growing  in  the  open 
ground  so  should  always  be  sold  in  pots.  I  strongly  recommend  pruning  back  the 
growth  which  has  flowered  in  May,  not  only  to  keep  them  in  good  form  but  to  prevent 
the  heavy  setting  of  seed  which  tends  to  weaken  the  plants  and  is  not  beautiful,  as  the 
pods  are  black.  Pot  grown  85c  (but  no  California  this  season.) 

NEW  EUROPEAN  BROOMS.  In  addition  to  the  Mitchell  Brooms,  we  have  imported 
from  England  some  of  their  latest  and  best  varieties. 

BURKWOODI.  Flowers  are  almost  solid  garnet  red  with  no  yellow  on  the  standard 
and  only  at  the  very  tips  of  keel  and  wings.  Plant  is  erect  and  vigorous,  blooms 
freely,  and  is  decidedly  precocious.  In  England  this  is  considered  one  of  the 
best  hybrids.  Pot  grown  $1.25. 

LORD  LAMBOURNE.  The  flowers  are  a  brilliant  blend  of  scarlet,  primrose,  and 
rose-pink;  standards  are  yellow  tipped  pink,  wings  deep  crimson.  Grows  only 
moderately,  but  is  a  free  bloomer.  Pot  grown  85c. 

MARIA  BURK  WOOD.  The  flowers  are  remarkably  large  and  have  a  brilliant 
coloring.  Standards  are  red  on  back,  creamy-rose  on  face,  and  yellowish  at  the 
base.  The  wings  are  reddish-bronze  outside,  cream  within.  It  is  moderately 
early  and  the  plant  is  of  spreading  habit.  This  is  one  of  the  newest  from  Eng¬ 
land  where  it  is  held  in  very  high  esteem.  Grafted,  pot  grown  plants  $1.75. 

ESCALLONIA  DONARDENSIS.  This  is  a  quick  growing  rather  slender-branching 
shrub  which  bears  a  profusion  of  attractive  flowers  having  the  pleasing  combination  of 
pink  and  white  usually  termed  “appleblossom.”  Pot  grown  1-114  ft.  50c. 

EUCALYPTUS  CAESIA.  Small  tree;  grows  to  only  12  or  15  ft.  tall  bearing  beauti¬ 
ful  pink  flowers.  Pot  grown  142-2  ft.  75c. 


EUCALYPTUS  GROSSA.  Makes  a  large  shrub  about  10  ft.  tall  with  dark  glossy- 
green  leaves.  The  golden-yellow  flowers  are  borne  freely.  In  Australia  called  Phillips 
River  Gum.  Pot  grown  4-6  in.  50c. 

EUCALYPTUS  NUTANS.  Very  dwarf  and  bushy  shrub  usually  not  growing  over 
6-8  ft.  tall.  Has  brilliant  red  flowers  which  keep  well  when  cut.  Pot  grown  4-6  in.  50c. 

EUCALYPTUS  PREISSIANA.  Small  tree  with  very  striking  lemon-yellow  flowers. 
Pot  grown  4-6  in.  50c. 

EUCALYPTUS  SEPULCRALIS.  This  is  the 
only  true  weeping  Eucalyptus.  It  will  grow 
20  to  25  ft.  and  bears  a  profusion  of  yellow 
flowers  highly  decorative  both  in  natural  state 
when  cut.  Pot  grown  4-6  in.  50c. 
EUCALYPTUS  TETRAPTERA.  Small  tree 
or  large  shrub  with  very  leathery,  dark  leaves 
and  bearing  large,  brilliant  red  flowers.  Gal. 
can  142-2  ft.  $1.00. 

EUCALYPTUS  TORQUATA.  Rather  vigorous 
grower  but  making  only  a  small  tree  with 
usual  type  of  foliage.  Flowers  of  good  size, 
bright  red  overlaid  with  gold.  Gal.  can  24£-3 
ft.  $1.50. 

EUGENIA  SMITHI.  Known  in  Australia  as 
the  Lilli  Pilli  tree.  It  makes  a  large  shrub  or 
small  tree  which  is  highly  esteemed  for  its 
enormous  crop  of  lavender  berries.  They  keep 
well  when  cut  and  are  very  beautiful  for  dec¬ 
orations.  It  will  probably  stand  about  the 
same  amount  of  cold  as  the  other  Eugenias; 
possibly  a  little  more.  Pot  grown  6-8  in.  50c. 
GREVILLEA  OBTUSIFOLIA.  Easily  one  of 
the  finest  ground  covers  ever  introduced.  It

NURSERY, 

SAN  JOSE, 


CALIF 


lies  perfectly  flat  on  the  ground,  grows  rapidly  and 
covers  the  ground  completely.  Leaves  are  small 
and  narrow.  Even  when  very  young,  it  blooms  pro¬ 
fusely.  Flowers  are  red  and  of  the  same  peculiar 
shape  as  all  other  Grevilleas.  It  should  become 
enormously  popular  as  it  becomes  known.  Pot 
grown  4-6  in.  60c. 

GREVILLEA  RGSMARINIFOLIA.  An  erect 
shrub  attaining  5  or  6  ft.  Habit  is  bushy  and  com¬ 
pact;  leaves  linear;  flowers  are  pink  and  white. 

Said  to  withstand  as  low  as  20  degrees  fahrenheit. 

Pot  grown  8-12  in.  75c. 

HELIANTHEMITM  LASIANTHUM  (H.  formo- 
sum).  Low  growing  shrub  with  grayish  green 
leaves.  The  extremely  attractive  flowers  are  form¬ 
ed  like  Rockroses  but  are  bright  yellow  with  a  red 
spot  at  the  base  of  each  petal.  Prefers  full  sun 
and  will  thrive  in  limy  soils.  Pot  grown  8-12  in. 

50c. 

ILEX  LATIFOLIA.  Called  “Tarayo”  in  Japan. 

Has  remarkably  handsome  foliage  suggesting  Eng¬ 
lish  Laurel.  Leaves  up  to  6  inches  or  more  long 
and  2  inches  wide,  rich  dark  green.  Berries  red. 

This  is  said  to  be  the  finest  of  the  Japanese  Hollies 
and  certainly  looks  very  promising.  Gal.  can  114 -2 
ft.  $1.50,  1-114  ft.  $1.25;  pot  grown  8-12  in.  75c,  6-8  in.  60c. 

PEItNY  HOLLY  (Ilex  perayi).  We  again  call  attention  to  this  gem  among  the  Hollies. 
Small,  slow  growing  and  dainty  in  every  way.  Leaves  very  small  and  prickly.  The 
female  plants  bear  a  profuse  crop  of  light,  bright  red  berries.  Hardly  known  in  the 
gardens  as  yet,  but  we  cannot  recommend  it  too  highly.  Grafted  female  plants;  balled 
and  with  berries,  114-2  ft.  $2.50;  gal.  cans  8-12  in.  $1.25. 

MYRTUS  COMMUNIS  MINIMA.  This  is  a  most  minute  little  dwarf  shrub  with  tiny 
leaves.  What  its  ultimate  growth  may  be  we  can  not  say  but  apparently  it  will  take 
years  to  reach  any  very  great  size.  Pot  grown  2-4  in.  60c. 

NIEREMBERGIA  HIPPOMANICA.  This  is  more  of  a  herbaceous  perennial  than  a 
shrub  and  in  England  it  is  considered  one  of  the  best  novelties  of  recent  years.  It  only 
grows  6-8  in.  tall  and  is  smothered  with  flowers  1-114  inches  in  diameter  which  are 
delicate  lavender  with  a  yellow  eye.  It  blooms  over  a  long  season.  Considered  parti¬ 
cularly  fine  for  rock  gardens.  Pot  grown  25c. 

CATALINA  TO  YON  (Photinia  arbutifolia  macrocarpa).  The  variety  of  Toyon  or 
California  Holly  which  grows  on  Catalina  Island  is  distinguished  by  larger  leaves,  more 
vigorous  growth  and  particularly  by  the  larger  size  of  its  berries.  Pot  grown  12-15 
in.  50c,  8-12  in.  40c. 

ORANGE  BERRIED  TOYON  (Photinia  arbutifolia  chrysocarpa).  Briefly  this  is  a 
Toyon  with  orange-yellow  instead  of  red  berries.  Our  plants  are  seedlings  and  can  not 
be  absolutely  guaranteed  but  being  grown  from  yellow  berries,  they  are  reasonably 
certain  to  reproduce  the  type.  Pot  grown  8-12  in.  50c. 

PROTEA  COMPACTA.  The  Proteas  are  from  South  Africa  and  will  stand  moderate 
frost  and  plenty  of  heat  but  do  not  like  limy  soil.  The  flower  heads  are  large  and 
very  peculiarly  formed.  This  form  has  them  about  4  inches  long  with  pink  to  carmine 
bracts.  Pot  grown  8-12  in.  75c. 

PROTEA  SUSANNAE.  This  one  has  large  leaves  about  5  inches  long  and  4  inch 
flower  heads  which  were  strikingly  illustrated  on  the  cover  of  Sunset  Magazine  for 
June,  1936.  Pot  grown  2-4  in.  75c. 

PSORALEA  APHYLLA.  One  of  the  “Blue  Brooms’’.  It  is  a  vigorous  upright  grower; 
branches  have  green  bark  and  almost  no  leaves.  Flowers  are  exactly  like  those  of 
Broom  but  light  blue  and  produce  over  a  long  season.  Pot  grown  2-3  ft.  75c. 

TURRAEA  OBTUSIFOLIA.  A  small  South  African  shrub  which  probably  will  not  at¬ 
tain  over  3  ft.  in  height.  The  flowers  are  rather  large,  star  shaped,  pure1  white,  and 
borne  in  profusion  over  quite  a  long  season.  It  probably  is  very  averse  to  lime  in 
the  soil,  but  is  a  beautiful  thing  where  it  can  be  made  to  grow.  Pot  grown  8-12  in.  $1.00. 

VIBURNUM  BURKWOODI.  This  can  be  briefly  described  as  an  evergreen  Viburnum 
c^rlesi  with  larger  clusters  of  intensely  fragrant  flowers.  This  was  mentioned  in  G. 
A.  1936  and  we  had  expected  to  distribute  it  this  year  but  although  we  grew  a  reason¬ 
able  number  of  plants,  we  regard  it  as  such  an  unusually  fine  novelty,  far  out  of  the 
ordinary,  that  we  decided  to  use  the  entire  stock  this  year  for  grafting  wood  and  in-

troduce  it  on  a  large  scale  next  season.  However,  if  you  want  to  get  started  early  on 
this  and  are  willing  to  take  plants  from  which  grafting  wood  has  been  taken,  we  can 
supply  a  limited  number  of  field  grown,  balled  plants  at  $2.00  or  from  5  in.  pots  at 
$1.25. 


FLOWERING  FRUIT  TREES 

FLOWERING  APPLE  (Malus  adstringens).  As  to  the  flower  of  this  tree  we  quote 
from  a  recent  bulletin  of  the  Morton  Arboretum:  “Attention  is  now  focussed  on  the 
Flowering  Crabapple  collection  (Malus  in  variety).  While  every  species  has  contributed 
generously  to  the  mass  color  effect,  all  honors  for  individual  beauty  belong  to  the  hy¬ 
brid  form,  Malus  adstringens,  whose  soft  rose  pink  fiowers  of  such  a  rare  shade,  have 
attracted  the  notice  and  admiration  of  all  who  have  seen  it.  It  is  a  cross  between  the 
common  Apple,  M.  pumila  and  the  Siberian  Crab,  M.  baccata.”  6-7  ft.  $2.00,  5-6  ft. 
$1.50. 

APRICOT  Chas.  Abraham.  All  the  other  flowering  apricots  are  varieties  of  Prunus 
mume  but  this  is  a  form  of  Prunus  armeniaca  from  which  our  orchard  apricots  are  de¬ 
rived.  The  very  double  flowers  are  borne  before  the  leaves  and  as  they  appear  serially, 
it  has  a  long  blooming  habit.  The  blossoms  are  deep  pink  shading  into  pure  red  on  the 
outside.  Named  in  honor  of  the  very  well  known  nurseryman  and  horticulturist,  the 
late  Charles  Abraham  of  San  Francisco,  who  introduced  this  variety  from  the  Orient 
many  years  ago.  We  believe,  however,  that  this  is  the  first  time  it  has  been  offered 
generally.  6-7  ft.  $2.00,  5-6  ft.  $1.75,  4-5  ft.  $1.50. 

AURORA  PEACH.  A  few  years  ago  we  selected  seed  from  all  our  flowering  peaches; 
grew  about  500  seedlings  and  carried  them  on  until  they  bloomed.  This  variety,  in  our 
opinion,  was  the  best  of  the  lot.  The  flowers  are  a  lovely  shade  of  very  soft  pink 
entirely  free  from  the  harsh  tones  which  some  profess  to  find  in  the  other  flowering 
peaches.  It  is  an  extremely  free  grower.  Blooms  early  in  the  season  und  flowers  keep 
very  well  indeed  when  cut.  Although  a  secondary  matter,  we  can  add  that  it  bears  a 
moderate  crop  of  delicious  free-stone  fruit  with  white  skin  and  white  flesh.  While 
this  variety  was  under  test,  we  showed  the  flowers  to  a  good  many  visitors  and  found 
that  is  was  invariably  admired.  6-7  ft.  $2.00. 

PEACH  Blushing  Bride.  The  large  saucer  shaped  flowers  are  often  pure  white  but 
generally  are  more  or  less  marked  with  soft  rose;  occasionally  there  is  a  flower  which 
is  entirely  rose  color.  Growth  is  vigorous  and  habit  very  spreading  but  not  drooping. 
Quite  early.  6-7  ft.  $2.00. 


DECIDUOUS  TREES 


CERASUS  CAPULI.  The  seed  from  which  we  raised  our  plants  was  brought  from  the 
mountains  of  Equador  where  it  is  highly  esteemed  as  a  fruiting  cherry  and  is  said  to 
reproduce  itself  correctly  from  seed.  The  leaves  are  willow-like  and  so  far  seem  to  be 
evergreen.  We  suspect  it  may  be  Prunus  salicifolia.  The  foliage  and  general  appear¬ 
ance  is  quite  attractive  and  the  fruit 
should  be  at  least  interesting.  Gal. 
can.  1-1%  ft.  $1.00. 


BOUGAINVILLEA  TREE  (Koel- 
reuteria  bipinnata).  This  is  con¬ 
sidered  one  of  the  most  showy  and 
beautiful  trees  that  can  be  grown 
in  this  climate.  Its  general  appear¬ 
ance  is  like  that  of  the  common 
Golden  Rain  Tree,  K.  paniculata,  but 
it  has  deeper  green,  glossier  and 
more  acute  leaflets  on  the  very  large 
leaves  which  are  fully  bipinnate. 
The  yellow  flowers  are  numerous  but 
small.  Its  striking  feature  is  the 
large  bladder  like  pods  which  con¬ 
tain  the  seeds  and  assume  intensely 
brilliant  tints  in  late  summer  and 
early  fall.  3-4  ft.  $1.50,  2-3  ft.  $1.25.

DECIDUOUS  SHRUBS 


HORSE  CHESTNUT.  While  generally  thought  of  as 
trees  the  following  striking  forms  are  merely  shrubs 
which  start  blooming  when  only  a  foot  or  so  tall. 

AESCULUS  DISCOLOR  MOLLIS.  Blooms  in  late 
spring.  Flowers  a  mixture  of  yellow  and  scar¬ 
let.  Grafted  plants  I-IV2  ft.  $1.00. 

AESCULUS  MUTABILIS.  Flowers  yellow  and 
red.  Grafted  I-IV2  ft.  $1.00. 

AESCULUS  NEGLECT  A  TOMENTOSA.  Flowers 
bright  red.  Grafted  I-IV2  ft.  $1.00. 

DWARF  LAVENDER  CREPEMYRTLE  (Lagerstroe- 
mia).  This  charming  variety  is  sufficiently  described 
by  its  name.  It  makes  only  a  small  shrub  and  blooms 
very  profusely.  Pot  grown  12-15  in.  60c. 

MERATIA  PRAECOX  GRANDIFLORA.  This  is  a 
rare  large  flowering  form  of  the  plant  generally  known 
as  Calycanthus  praecox,  so  greatly  esteemed  for  its 
very  early  and  intensely  fragrant  yellowish  flowers 
which  are  among  the  first  to  appear  in  the  spring. 
4-5  ft.  $2.00,  3-4  ft.  $1.50. 


PHILADELPHUS  ATLAS.  One  of  Lemoine’s  varieties 

recently  imported  from  France.  The  pure  white,  usual-  long-clustered  goldenchain 
ly  four-petaled  flowers  are  enormous,  single  and  exceed  T  h  , 

21/2  inches  wide.  This  was  justly  given  the  Award  of 
Merit  of  the  Royal  Horticultural  Society.  8-12  in.  85c. 

VIBURNUM  FRAGRANS.  In  England  this  is  considered  superior  even  to  Viburnum 
carlesi  which  it  resembles  in  its  flowers  but  not  in  any  other  particular  as  it  is  of  slen¬ 
der,  erect  habit  with  entirely  different  foliage.  Here  it  often  starts  blooming  during 
the  winter  as  early  as  January;  occasionally  even  in  the  fall.  It  is  a  magnificent  thing 
but  scarce  and  hard  to  propagate  so  we  are  able  to  offer  only  small  pot  grown  grafts 
about  6  inches  tall  at  $1.25. 

WEIGELA.  The  following  varieties  were  recently  imported  from  France  where  they 
were  originated  by  Lemoine: 

IDEAL.  Flowers  brightly  carmine  outside  and  carmine-rose  within.  Unlike  Eva 
Rathke  it  is  a  well  formed  rounded  shrub  and  an  extremely  free  bloomer.  8-12 

in.  $1.00. 

MAJESTEUX.  Erect  and  vigorous.  The  medium  sized  rose  pink  flowers  are  very 
freely  produced.  8-12  in.  $1.00. 


CLIMBERS 

BILLARDIERA  LONGIFLORA.  Slender  climber  highly  valued  for  its  large  metallic 
blue  berries.  Pot  grown  2-2  Ez  ft.  $1.00. 

JASMINUM  STEPHANENSE.  This  recently  introduced  vine  is  of  extremely  vigorous 
growth,  quickly  making  an  attractive  flowering  screen.  The  flowers  are  soft  lavender- 
pink  and  very  fragrant.  Pot  grown  3-4  ft.  75c,  l%-2  ft.  50c. 

PILEOSTEGIA  VIBURNOIDES.  This  new  evergreen  vine  might  be  briefly  described 
as  a  climbing  Laurustinus.  Thrives  best  in  full  shade  where  so  few  vines  do  well. 
Leaves  are  of  good  size,  leathery,  and  glossy.  White  flowers  are  borne  freely  in  large 
clusters  in  Autumn.  Looks  very  promising.  Gal.  can  l1/2-2  ft.  $1.25. 

EXTRA  LONG  CLUSTERED  WHITE  WISTERIA  (Wisteria  longissima  alba).  Last 
year  we  promised  to  introduce  this  fine  novelty  this  season.  It  is  by  far  the  longest 
clustered  white  variety  we  have  ever  seen,  attaining  as  much  as  30  inches  in  length. 
Grafted  plants  grown  one  year  in  the  field  $2.00. 

ROYAL  PURPLE  WISTERIA.  This  is  being  offered  now  for  the  first  time  in  this 
country.  It  belongs  in  the  Japanese  group  but  instead  of  the  usual  very  pale  color  of 
the  Japanese  types  this  is  a  deep  purple.  This  color  is  far  out  of  the  ordinary  and  is 
very  striking.  The  foliage  is  also  noteworthy,  being  dark  green  and  somewhat  glossy, 
looking  almost  evergreen.  Fortunately  it  blooms  much  younger  than  most  of  the 
Japanese  varieties  so  buyers  should  not  have  to  wait  long  to  see  the  flowers.  This 
year  we  are  unable  to  supply  anything  except  grafts  which  were  made  last  spring  and 
will  not  of  course  be  very  large.  $2.00  each.

PART  II. 

CONIFERS 


COMPACT  DEODAR  (Cedrus  deodara  compacta).  The  common  Deodar  is  easily  one  of 
our  finest  trees  but  as  it  is  extremely  variable  and  soon  attains  great  size  it  is  unsuit¬ 
able  for  ordinary  grounds.  On  the  other  hand  this  charming  variety  is  much  more 
compact,  very  silvery  and  grows  only  about  half  as  fast.  Furthermore,  its  “leader”  is 
always  perfectly  straight  and  erect  which  is  so  rarely  the  case  in  the  common  form. 
Being  grafted  there  is  no  variation.  Where  space  is  limited  it  is  one  of  the  best  out¬ 
door  Christmas  trees.  Balled  7-8  ft.  $8:00,  5-6  ft.  $5.50,  4-5  ft.  $4.00;  gal.  can  2-3  ft. 
$1.00;  pot  grown  1*4-2  ft.  75c. 

FOUNTAIN  DEODAR  (Cedrus  deodara  fontinalis).  A  gem  for  those  who  appreciate 
the  unusual.  The  most  striking  variant  of  the  Deodar,  it  produces  a  mass  of  very 
long,  slender,  drooping,  rope-like  branches  which  give  it  a  unique  fountain-like  appear¬ 
ance.  The  illustration  of  the  original  tree  tells  more  than  a  longer  description.  Balled 
6-7  ft.  $7.00,  5-6  ft.  $5.50,  4-5  ft.  $4.50:  gal.  can  3-4  ft.  $2.00;  pot  grown  l%-2  ft.  $1.00, 
1-1%  ft.  75c. 

FLETCHER  CYPRESS  (Chamaecyparis  lawsoniana  fletcheri).  This  is  hardly  known 
at  all  but  it  is  a  beauty.  A  large  shrub,  not  a  tree.  Foliage  is  finely  cut,  lacy  and  rich 
silvery  blue.  It  does  not  seem  to  thrive  in  full  sun  here  but  does  admirably  in  partial 
or  moderate  shade.  Balled  2-3  ft.  $3.50;  pot  grown  1-1%  ft.  85c. 

CRIPPS  CYPRESS  (Chamaecyparis  obtusa  crippsi).  An  intensely  golden,  shrubby 
conifer  with  rather  fine  graceful  foliage.  Its  growth  is  not  rapid  and  it  probably  will 
not  attain  any  very  great  size.  One  of  the  best  of  its  color.  Balled  2-2*4  ft.  $2.50; 
pot  grown  1-1%  ft.  $1.25. 

HOLLYWOOD  JUNIPER  (Juniperus  chinensis  torulosa).  One  of  our  finest  conifers 
which  thrives  well  from  Canada  to  the  Mexican  border.  Color  is  one  of  the  richest 
greens  seen  in  any  conifer;  growth  often  narrowly  erect  or  sometimes  furnished  with 
long  branches  near  the  base  which  can  be  removed  if  narrow  form  is  desired.  In  any 
case  the  trunk  is  never  like  a  pole  but  always  gracefully  waVy  or  slightly  twisted, 
which  is  the  reason  for  the  varietal  name  “torulosa”.  In  Japan  where  it  is  known  as 
Kaizuka  Juniper  it  is  becoming  one  of  their  most  popular  conifers  and  will  unquestion¬ 
ably  do  the  same  here  Balled  7-8  ft.  $8.00,  5-6  ft.  $5.00,  4-5  ft.  $4.00,  3-4  ft.  $3.00;  gal. 
can  1-1%  ft.  $1.00 

MEYER  JUNIPER  (Juniperus  squamata  meyeri).  Although  we  have  described  this 
in  previous  editions  it  will  do  no  harm  to  call  attention  again  to  such  a  splendid  new¬ 
comer  which  seems  to  be  almost  universally  admired.  Like  the  preceding  variety  it 
is  of  somewhat  irregular  growth  which  frees  it  from  any  suggestion  of  stiffness.  Color 
is  a  striking  blend  of  gray  and  silver  with  a  slight  violet  shading  during  the  winter 
months.  Bailed  2%-3  ft.  $3.00,  2-2%  ft.  $2.50,  l%-2  ft.  $2.00;  gal.  can  1-1%  ft.  $1.25. 


DWARF  ALBERTA  SPRUCE  (Picea  glauca  conica).  A  delightful  miniature  tree 
whose  growth  is  so  exceedingly  slow  that  it  does  not  make  more  than  an  inch  or  two 
a  year.  Always  retains  a  slender  conical  shape  and  is  highly  attractive  in  rock  gar¬ 
dens  and  other  suitable  locations.  Balled 
12-15  in.  $4.00,  10-12  in.  $3.50,  8-10  in. 
$3.00. 


HIMALAYAN  WEEPING  SPRUCE 
(Picea  smithiana).  A  rare  and  very 
striking  conifer.  Its  main  growth  is 
perfectly  erect  but  the  branches  and 
branchlets  are  decidely  drooping.  Foliage 
is  somewhat  silvery.  Quite  rare.  Balled 
1-1%  ft.  $2.00. 

SILVER  REDWOOD  (Sequoia  semper- 
virens  argentea).  A  very  rare  form  of 
Coast  Redwood  having  brightly  silver 
colored  foliage.  Grows  as  vigorously  as 
common  Redwood  and  contrasts  pleas¬ 
ingly  when  planted  with  it.  Gal.  can 
3-4  ft.  $2.00,  2-3  ft.  $1.50;  pot  grown 
1-1%  ft.  85c. 

smooth  roseacacia  BLUE  REDWOOD  (Sequoia  sempervi- 

Robinia  hispida  macrophyiia  rens  glauca).  This  natural  variety  is  of- 


s 


ten  seen  in  the  Santa  Cruz  Moun¬ 
tains  but  rarely  in  the  northern 
range  of  the  Redwood.  Foliage  has  ' 
a  pronounced  bluish  tint  making  it 
less  somber  than  the  common  type. 
Gal.  can  3-4  ft.  $1.50;  pot  grown 
1-1%  ft.  75c. 


GOLDEN  IRISH  YEW  (Taxus  bac- 
cata  fastigiata  aurea).  An  exact 
counterpart  of  the  well  known  Irish 
Yew  except  that  in  spring  and  early 
summer  the  leaves  are  brilliantly 
variegated  with  gold.  Balled  5-6  ft. 
$7.50,  4-4%  ft.  $6.00,  3-3  %  ft.  $4.50. 


SPREADING  GOLDEN  YEW  (Tax- 
us  baccata  repandens  aurea).  An 
excellent  conifer  of  decidedly  pros¬ 
trate  habit.  Has  the  typical  Yew 
foliage  which  is  strongly  golden  in 
the  spring  but  becomes  green  in  the 
latter  part  of  the  season.  Grows  slowly. 
$1.25,  6-8  in.  75c. 


SAUCER  MAGNOLIA 
Magnolia  soulangeana 

Very  fine  for  roch  gardens.  Balled  8-12  in. 


BROAD  LEAVED  EVERGREEN  SHRUBS 


FRAGRANT  ABELIA  (Abelia  triflora).  Grows  tall  and  slender  with  arching  branches. 
Bears  dense  terminal  clusters  of  long-tubed  nearly  pure  white  flowers  whose  intense 
fragrance  resembles  Bouvardia.  Pot  grown  l%-2  ft.  65c. 

WINTER-SWEET  (Acokanthera  spectabilis).  This  rare  shrub  has  leathery  purple 
leaves  and  large  clusters  of  very  fragrant  flowers.  It  isn’t  any  too  hardy  but  can 
withstand  light  frosts  outside  or  is  suitable  for  conservatory  culture.  Pot  grown  4-6 
in.  50c. 

WARTY  BARBERRY  (Berberis  verruculosa).  Why  such  an  unpleasant  name  should 
have  been  wished  on  this  delightful  shrub  is  more  than  we  can  see.  If  it  has  warts 
they  are  not  in  evidence!  Of  slow  growth  and  makes  a  compact  shrub.  Leaves  small 
and  holly-like,  very  silvery  beneath.  Some  plants  take  on  a  strong  bronze  hue  as  win¬ 
ter  approaches;  others  display  many  leaves  colored  brilliant  red.  Bears  a  good  crop 
of  golden  yellow  flowers  in  early  spring.  Pot  grown  8-12  in.  50c,  6-8  in.  40c. 

BORONIA  ELATIOR.  This  charming  little  plant  seems  to  have  no  common  name. 
Foliage  is  very  finely  cut  and  also  very  fragrant.  Flowers  are  produced  very  profusely 
over  a  long  period  in  early  summer.  They  are  rose  colored  and  look  exactly  like  rather 
large  heather  blooms.  In  fact  the  plant  could  be  mistaken  for  a  heather,  but  is  totally 
unrelated  and  neither  requires  nor  likes  acid  soil.  It  is  very  dainty  and  attractive. 
Pot  grown  8-12  in.  60c,  6-8  in.  50c. 

BRUNFELSIA  FLORIBUNDA  (B.  calycina).  This  shrub  is  really  a  wonder.  Foliage 
is  about  the  size  and  shape  of  California  Privet.  Growth  slow  and  generally  upright. 
The  flowers  are  about  the  size  and  shape  of  Vinca  and  are  borne  in  the  greatest  pro¬ 
fusion  through  spring  and  early  summer  with  a  scattering  crop  the  rest  of  the  year 
except  during  the  cold  months.  When  the  buds  are  fully  opened  the  flowers  are  deep 
violet.  Each  flower  lasts  about  a  week  and  in  this  period  slowly  changes  to  pure  white 
with  the  result  that  when  in  bloom  the  shrub  always  shows  violet,  lavender  and  white 
flowers  at  the  same  time.  This  would  be  plenty,  but  “for  good  measure,”  it  also  has 
a  delightfully  rich  and  powerful  fragrance  which  will  perfume  an  entire  garden.  Curi¬ 
ously  the  fragrance  intensifies  as  the  color  lightens.  It  is  of  slow  growth  and  will 
probably  remain  scarce  for  a  good  many  years.  Gallon  can  2-2%  ft.  $1.75,  l%-2  ft. 
$1.50. 

CAMELLIA.  We  carry  quite  a  stock  of  these  beautiful  plants  but  there  is  such  a  wide 
variation  in  size  and  varieties  that  we  cannot  list  them  in  detail  here.  Prices  on  balled 
plants  carrying  flower  buds  range  from  $1.50  to  $10.00  each. 

CHORIZEMA  CORDATUM.  Although  “Hortus”  says  this  is  the  same  as  the  well 
known  C.  ilicifolium  we  find  it  distinct.  Leaves  are  rounded  and  more  or  less  heart- 
shaped.  The  Pea  shaped  flowers  are  similiar  but  have  a  more  scarlet  effect.  Pot 
grown  4-6  in.  25c. 


y 


NECKLACE  COTONEASTER  (Cotoneaster  decora).  Growth  is  low  and  spreading,  al¬ 
most  prostrate.  Leaves  are  very  small,  about  like  those  of  Lonicera  nitida  and  ever¬ 
green.  Berries  are  bright  red,  of  good  size  and  born  all  along  the  slender  branches. 
A  rather  shy  bearer  at  first  but  later  it  loads  itself  with  enormous  crops.  Balled  3-4 
ft.  wide  $3.00,  154-2  ft.  wide  $1.50;  pot  grown  8-12  in.  50c. 

ROSE  QUEEN  DAPHNE.  This  is  a  distinct  variety  of  the  old  favorite  Pink  Daphne 
of  California  gardens.  Leaves  are  dark  green  with  no  variegation.  Flowers  are  larger 
than  in  the  common  yellow-edged  form,  have  the  usual  rich  fragrance,  are  deep  rose 
outside,  light  pink  within  and  produced  in  much  larger  clusters.  Also  the  plant  is  of 
more  compact  habit.  Very  fine.  Balled  18-24  in.  $3.50,  15-18  in.  $2.50,  12-15  in.  $2.25; 
gal.  can  6-8  in.  $1.00;  pot  grown  4-6  in.  75c. 

GOLDENLEAF  ELEAGNUS  (Eleagnus  pungens  maculata).  The  common  Eleagnus 
with  slight  variegation  around  the  edges  is  common  and  not  particularly  esteemed. 
This  is  decidedly  different  as  all  the  central  part  of  leaves  is  golden  yellow  with  green 
margin.  It  is  very  difficult  to  propagate  so  is  rare  and  no  large  stock  available  at 
this  time.  Gal.  can  114-2  ft.  $1.00,  1-1 14  ft.  75c;  pot  grown  1-114  ft.  60c. 

BANANA  SHRUB  (Michelia  fuscata).  This  has  been  a  favorite  for  many  years  but 
being  difficult  to  propagate  always  has  been  and  still  is  very  scarce.  It  is  of  very 
slow  growth,  does  not  like  full  sun  and  bears  small  Magnolia-like  flowers  which  are 
yellow  marked  with  ruddy  brown.  These  have  a  strong  but  very  agreeable  banana¬ 
like  fragrance.  Balled  1-114  ft.  $2.50;  pot  grown  8-12  in.  85c,  6-8  in.  75c. 

ORANGE  JASMINE  (Murraea  exotica).  Related  to  and  slightly  resembles  Choisya. 
Growth  is  slower  and  leaves  and  leaflets  smaller.  Bears  fragrant  white  flowers  follow¬ 
ed  by  clusters  of  red  berries.  It  blooms  very  freely  over  a  good  portion  of  the  pear. 
Pot  grown  6-8  in.  60c. 

ROGERS  ORANGE  FIRETHORN  (Pyracantha  rogersiana  aurantiaca).  Berries  are 
orange  not  red,  borne  all  along  the  slender,  long,  willowy  branches  which,  the  second 
year,  bear  clear  to  the  tips.  This  point  makes  this  Firethorn  about  the  best  of  all 
berry  bearing  plants  as  a  source  of  cut  material  for  decoration.  Flowers  are  white  and 
borne  so  profusely  that  it  would  be  worth  planting  as  a  good  flowering  shrub  even  if 
it  never  fruited  at  all.  Cutting  the  berried  branches  is  beneficial  to  the  plant  as  this 
leaves  the  way  clear  for  the  new  wood  to  bear  in  turn  the  following  year.  5  gal.  can 
3-4  ft.  $2.00;  gal.  can  3-4  ft.  $1.25,  2-3  ft.  $1.00,  154-2  ft.  85c;  pot  grown  2-3  ft.  85c, 
154-2  ft.  75c. 

RHODODENDRONS,  We  have  a  nice  stock  of  Pink  Pearl  and  other  grafted  varieties. 
Excellent  plants  well  set  with  flower  buds  from  $3.35  to  $7.00. 

SKIMMIA  JAPONICA.  A  very  dwarf  and  slow  growing  Japanese  plant  which  re¬ 
quires  both  shade  and  acid  soil.  The  male  plants  have  attractive  white  flowers  which 
are  as  fragrant  as  Lily  of  the  Valley.  The  female  plants  bear  a  fine  crop  of  orange-red 
berries.  Pot  grown  8-12  in.  $1.00,  6-8  in.  75c,  4-6  in.  60c. 

SPARMANNIA  AFRICANA.  Grows  very  rapidly  and  makes  a  large  shrub.  It  is  re¬ 
lated  to  the  Lindens  and  has  somewhat  similiar  foliage.  Produces  a  fairly  good  crop 
of  white  flowers  in  clusters.  Entire  effect  is  quite  tropical.  Pot  grown  154-2  ft.  50c. 

TEMPLETONIA  RETUSA.  Australian  shrub  of  unusual  appearance.  Belongs  to  the 
pea  family  and  has  long  slender  red  flowers.  Gal.  can  8-12  in.  75c. 

DECIDUOUS  TREES 

DAVIDIA  INVOLUCRATA.  This  is  the  famous  and  extremely  rare  Dove  Tree  of 
China.  We  have  only  a  very  few  plants;  20  in.  $10.00,  12  in.  $7.50,  10  in.  $6.00,  8  in. 
$4.00. 

RED  HORSECHESTNUT  (Aesculus).  It  seems  to  us  that  the  Horsechestnuts  are  not 
planted  as  widely  as  they  should  be  in  California.  The  red  or  pink  forms  are  particu¬ 
larly  esteemed  as  they  make  trees  of  medium  size  which  in  spring  are  covered  with 
showy  erect  panicles  which  contrast  beautifully  with  the  deep  green  leaves.  Growth  is 
rather  slow.  Top  grafted  4-5  ft.  $3.00;  seedlings  3-4  ft.  $1.25,  2-3  ft.  $1.00. 

PURPLE  LEAVED  BEECH.  We  have  some  very  fine  trees  this  season  not  only  in 
the  usual  erect  type  but  also  in  the  very  rare  weeping  form  at  prices  ranging  from 
$5.00  to  $20.00  for  erect  and  $7.50  to  $10.00  for  weeping. 

LONG-CLUSTERED  GOLDEN  CHAIN  (Laburnum  vossi).  A  small  tree  with  green 
bark  and  foliage  like  exaggerated  clover  leaves.  Flowers  are  pure  golden  yellow  and 
formed  exactly  like  those  of  Wisteria.  The  hanging  clusters  attain  as  much  as  18  to 
20  inches  length  and  are  borne  very  profusely  in  late  spring.  Very  beautiful  and  even 
the  smallest  size  will  usually  bloom  the  first  year.  Having  a  large  stock  we  are 
making  unusually  low  prices  this  season.  8-10  ft.  $2.50,  6-8  ft.  $2.00,  3-4  ft.  $1.00. 


in 


SMOOTH  ROSE-ACACIA  (Robinia  hispida  macro- 
phylla).  Also  called  Large  Flowering  Pink  Locust. 
To  make  a  tree  it  has  to  be  top-grafted  on  suitable 
straight  stems.  Bears  a  great  profusion  of  large  clus¬ 
ters  of  flowers  in  late  spring.  Individually  they  are 
exactly  like  large  lavender-pink  sweet  peas.  They  al¬ 
ways  bloom  the  first  season  planted  and  every  spring 
thereafter.  When  young  the  trees  look  somewhat  arti¬ 
ficial  but  as  the  head  develops  this  effect  entirely  dis¬ 
appears  and  the  result  is  a  beautiful  round  headed  tree 
with  a  perfectly  straight  trunk.  We  have  them  with 
heads  of  various  ages  and  development  and  on  stems 
of  different  height  as  shown  in  the  following  price 
schedule:

5  ft.  stem  .  2.50 

At  first  the  heads  balance  better  with  the  shorter  stems 

but  this  is  only  temporary  and  in  the  long  run  the  taller 
stems  are  far  better.  We  also  have  specimen  trees 
from  $7.50  to  $10.00  each. 

JAPANESE  MAPLES  (Acer  palmatum  vars.).  We 

have  an  excellent  stock  of  much  finer  plants  of  Purple 
Leaved  Japanese  Maples  than  are  usually  available  in 
both  the  finely  cut-leaved  and  broader  leaved  forms.  Prices  range  from  $4.00  to  $15.00. 

DECIDUOUS  SHRUBS 

MAGNOLIA  MACROPHYLLA.  This  large  shrub  or  small  tree  is  a  native  of  the 
South-Eastern  States  and  is  probably  the  most  striking  tree  that  can  be  grown  in  the 
temperate  climates.  The  huge  leaves  are  sometimes  almost  3  ft.  long  and  over  a  foot 
wide.  The  flowers  are  proportionately  large,  commonly  a  foot  across  and  sometimes 
up  to  18  or  20  inches  wide.  Stock  limited.  Gal.  can  1%- 2  ft.  $2.00. 

JAPANESE  FLOWERING  QUINCES 
(Chaenomeles,  formerly  called  Cydonia.) 

Few  are  aware  of  the  great  range  of  types  and  colors  found  in  these  beautiful  and  very 
early  blooming  plants.  No  matter  how  small,  they  usually  bloom  from  first  season  on. 
CORAL  GLOW  (Ch.  japonica  corallina).  One  of  our  finest  kinds.  Growth  moderate 
and  will  not  get  as  large  as  the  common  form.  Habit  somewhat  spreading  so  will  usual¬ 
ly  be  about  as  wide  as  tall.  An  extremely  heavy  bloomer  sometimes  covering  the  bush 
almost  completely  with  its  beautiful  coral  or  salmon-apricot  colored  flowers.  3-4  ft. 
$1.50,  2-3  ft.  $1.25,  l%-2  ft.  $1.00,  1-1%  ft.  75c. 

JAPANESE  SCARLET  (Ch.  lagenaria).  The  old  favorite  and  really  rose  pink.  4-6 
ft.  $1.25,  1-1%  ft.  60c. 

BLOOD  RED  (Ch.  lagenaria  rubra  grandiflora).  Very  early,  very  large  flowers,  deep 
red.  1-1%  ft.  75c,  8-12  in.  60c.

General  Collection 

Customers  will  please  confine  their  orders  to  the  sizes  specified.  Lilacs  are  very  scarce

thing  in  case  we  should  be  sold  out  of  any  particular  item.  More  complete  descriptions 
are  given  in  “Garden  Aristocrats  1936”  which  will  be  mailed  on  request.

CLIMBERS 

EVERGREEN  WISTERIA  (Lonchocarpus  sp.).  This  is  a  remarkable  vine  which  instead 
of  blooming  in  the  spring  has  an  extremely  heavy  crop  of  deep  purple  colored  flowers 
in  late  fall.  In  very  mild  climates  it  probably  continues  to  bloom  through  the  winter 
but  here  it  is  finally  stopped  by  severe  frost  before  all  the  buds  have  opened.  It  seems 
to  be  plenty  hardy  enough  for  our  district.  Freezing  often  causes  it  to  drop  a  good 
proportion  of  its  leaves  although  it  is  probably  perfectly  evergreen  in  Southern  Cali¬ 
fornia.  Gal.  can  I-IV2  ft.  $1.50. 

SNAIL  VINE  (Fhaseolus  caracalla).  An  old  favorite  which  is  scarce.  The  very  large 
pea  shaped  flowers  are  coiled  in  a  peculiar  manner  which  accounts  for  the  common 
name.  They  are  cream  color  marked  with  purple  and  very  fragrant.  Pot  grown  2*4-3 
ft.  $1.00,  2-2*4  ft.  75c. 


WISTERIAS 


We  believe  we  grow  the  most  complete  collection  in  this  country.  Varieties  were  very 
completely  described  in  “Garden  Aristocrats  1936”  (copy  will  be  sent  on  request).  All 
our  stock  is  grafted.  Sizes  available  for  each  variety  are  indicated  by  letters.  “From 
beds”  indicates  bench  grafts  made  last  spring;  1  year,  2  year,  etc.,  shows  how  long  these 
have  been  grown  in  the  nursery  rows.

STANDARD  WISTERIAS 


These  are  grown  like  Standard  Roses  but  with  a  taller  stem,  about  4*4  to  5  ft.  This 
method  prevents  the  growth  of  long  climbing  shoots  and  makes  them  bloom  tremendous¬ 
ly  as  illustration  shows.  Nothing  is  more  beautiful  in  a  garden.  The  “heavy”  stock 
consists  of  strong  plants  several  years  old. 

The  “regular”  stock  has  strong  stems  and  well  developed  heads. 

The  “light”  stock  is  simply  a  start  in  the  right  direction  but  with  stem  of  full  height 
and  head  commencing  to  form.

them  here,  prices  on  such  material  will  be  quoted  upon  request,  but  the  best  way  is  to

OTHER  PLANTS.  If  you  are  looking  for  anything  in  woody  plants  and  do  not  find 
it  in  this  Booklet,  we  suggest  that  you  inquire  of  us  as  we  have  many  things  in  rather 
limited  quantities,  some  of  them  very  scarce,  which  are  not  mentioned  herein.
