OF course you love the unusual trees and plants — the tilings 

 that you find it difficult to secure from most nurserymen. 

 Why? The unusual things can be produced to advantage 

 only by the nurseryman wlio loves them, too, and who has 

 special facilities for their propagation.

Fancher Creek Nurseries makes a specialty of these new and 

 rare fruits and flowers — and our facilities for shipping to all parts 

 of the world are unusually good. We have hundreds of acres in 

 nursery, and supply everything needed by the large growers of 

 the Coast: in addition, we propagate choice varieties of the fruits 

 and flowers that grow in the Central and Eastern States.
