You have probably noticed these words in blue letters 
on a gold sign standing in front of representative homes 
and industrial structures in northern and central Cali¬ 
fornia. You have seen them in front of large estates and 
beside cottage gardens. Many another garden which you 
admired is laid out to a plan furnished by our experienced 
designers, but planted by the home owner himself. If you 
have been observant you have probably remarked upon 
the ever-increasing frequency with which these little 
signs have come to your attention. 
That is because our Landscape Department offers a 
combination of advantages not found in other services of 
this type. In the first place, size alone is no criterion. 
Although completely equipped and manned by trained 
personnel to provide plans and carry out complete con¬
