PECANS 
The pecan has been designated the official State tree, and as such it deserves 
special mention. An excellent shade tree and a valuable nut tree. — Bulletin, 
A. & M. College. 
The pecan has definitely shown itself to be a profitable commercial crop in 
the Southwest. It is a tree which adapts itself to a wide-range of climatic and 
soil conditions. Pecans are a paying investment when the proper stock is used 
and given the right care and cultivation. 
We graft or bud all the trees we sell here in our nursery on native seedlings 
grown from seed collected on the water shed of the Trinity River. Our Trees are 
correctly grown, very hardy, and dependable.
