OAKS ARE EVERLASTING 
The Maiestic Live Oak 
OAKS 
Quercus 
Nothing can compare to the majesty of the 
Oaks. Because of their longevity, everlasting beauty, 
and rapid growth, the Oaks are now preferred to all 
other Shade Trees. 
As the tree grows older, the side branches pre¬ 
dominate, making the tree broader and broader 
with age, and truly majestic in its beauty. When 
trees are trained in this way, in ca^e of a storm, 
there are not a lot of forked branches at the trunk 
to cause the tree to split and ruin its shape. 
We do not recommend the common practice of 
“topping” Oak Trees. 
LIVE OAK 
LIVE OAK Ouercus virginiana 
Broadleaf Evergreen .Shade Tree. Ter. 1 to 6. 
60 ft. 
There is nothing more beautiful than the true 
“Spanish” Live Oak. This type has thick, dark 
green, oblong, pointed leaves that glisten in the 
sunlight, the under side being a grayish-green color. 
There are many types of Live Oaks offered for 
sale, but our strain is not to be confused with the 
ordinary “Texas scrub Live Oak”, which is of very 
slow grow.th and.never makes a uniform, pretty 
tree. 
Our Live Oaks are grown from acorns gathered 
specially from the choicest Trees known in the 
South and. isolated from any other kinds of Oaks, 
which Hisures their being true to type and fast 
growing. This is the best, rapid growing Shade 
Tree for the Southwest.

Our Oaks are given careful at¬ 
tention, all forks being cut out, with 
the center stem retained, forcing all 
branches to come out horizontally 
from the main trunk. With this 
training, the center stem continues to 
grow upward, and the horizontal 
branches form a beautiful tree. 
PIN OAK Quercus palustris 
Deciduous Shade Tree. Ter. 1 to 3. 80 ft. 
Til is is the Northern type of Pin Oak, which is 
very similar to the native Spanish Oaks in West 
Texas. Large forked leaves of rich green color, 
changing to scarlet in the Fall. Rapid grower. Our 
trees have exceptionally straight trunks and shapely 
heads. 
SOUTHERN PIN OAK Quercus nigra 
Deciduous Shade Tree. Ter. 1 to 4. 90 ft. 
Its oblong, bright green leaves are decidedly 
attractive. Retains its foliage until late season, and 
puts on new foliage quite early in the spring. The 
Tree is uniform, well shaped, with smooth trunk 
and limbs. Its horizontal branching habit makes 
a very shapely tree. Grows well anywhere in the 
.Southwest. 
WILLOW OAK* Quercus phellos 
Deciduous Shade Tree. Ter. 1 to 4. 80 ft. 
In the South, its foliage does not shed until a 
heavy freeze. Some seasons it stays evergreen along 
the Gulf Coast the whole year. A tall growing 
tree, with rounded uniform top. The upright branch¬ 
es and straight trunk makes this tree desirable for 
shade and street planting. 
WATER OAK* Qirercus nigra 
Deciduous Shade Tree. Ter. 1 to 5. 60 ft. 
Upright growth with uniform rounded heads. 
Smooth bark, uniform straight trunks; vigorous
