California Native Shrubs and Trees 
While a few of these can be had from the nurseries, very many of the finest cannot 
be had in nursery-grown plants. There is a real need for a nursery making a specialty 
of the native shrubs and trees of this coast, and it is a need that I hope soon to fill. 
At present the greater part of the stock off'ered is of collected plants, but the best that 
can be found and handled carefully at the best time. 
AZALEA occidentalis is the native deciduous Azalea. It is a superb shrub, worthy 
of any garden, but not too easy to establish. It demands leaf-mold and constant moist- 
ure. Flowers creamy white, often tinged pink and with yellow markings. In splendid 
nursery-grown stock i8 inches high and heavy-rooted, $i, express added. 
CEANOTHUS. See Wild Lilacs, page 35. 
CALIFORNIA WILD CHERRY. The evergreen varieties are known as Priimis 
ilicijoliii and P. inlegrifolia, and can be had from most nurseries. The deciduous Wild 
Cherry is Pniniis dciiiis.sa, and is figured on the last cover page of this catalogue. It 
becomes a small, round-headed tree. 50 cts. each. 
CALIFORNIA CHRISTMAS BERRY, or Toyon, is a most beautiful shrub, well 
beloved for its bright berries in fall and winter. Easily grown and rapid. 6 to 12 inches 
high, in pots, 50 cts. each, expressage added.

auttnnn. Rooted vines, 50 cts. each. 
CALYCANTHUS occidentalis. The Sweet-scented Shrub is a fine ijlant for shade 
and moist ground. All 
parts of the plant are 
very fragrant, and the 
large, reddish flowers C|uite 
pretty. Wcll-rootcd plants 
50 cts. each. 
CHAMISO, or Cham- 
isal, is a shrub called 
A denosloma. fasciculalum, 
and well worthy any gar- 
den. It grows rapidly and 
will thrive where nothing 
else will grow in dry places. 
The leaves are more like 
pine needles, and the 
broad panicles of white 
llowers are very decora- 
tive, either on the bush or 
cut. Mne seedlings a foot 
or so high at 25 cts. each, 
S2 per doz., $12.50 per 
100. 
CLEMATIS in two ^^a- 
rieties are among otu- 
finest vines. C. lasiantha 
has few and large white 
flowers. C. ligusticifolia 
has large clusters of small 
flowers, and both have 
the highly ornamental 
seed-pods like in the illus- 
tration. 25 cts. each. 
CORNUS Nuttallii. See 
Dogwood, page 33. 
CURRANT, Flowering, 
is one of the finest shrubs 
for early spring bloom. It 
can be trained into'a low- 
headed tree. 25 cts. and
