THE CALIFORNIA CHINQUA- 

 PIN AS AN ORNAMEN- 

 TAL TREE 



This beautiful specimen of the wild 

 California chinquapin grows on our 

 grounds at Sebastopol. The California 

 chinquapin tree has obvious merits of 

 its own as an ornamental shrub, as 

 this picture clearly testifies. It is 

 evergreen, with foliage of golden 

 color underneath, and is appropriately 

 named Castanea chrysophylla.
