• California is decidedly the home of the citrus family. They are grown com¬ 
mercially from San Diego to Oroville and from the coast to the foothills of 
the Sierras. 
Most of the citrus fruits can be grown in protected locations around the 
home, in almost all parts of the state. Well-kept citrus trees are an addition 
to any lawn. Their beautiful, dark green foliage makes a perfect back¬ 
ground, either for the profusion of bloom, or for the golden fruit. They are 
highly ornamental and the planting of a good selection will give fresh fruit, 
lemopade and orange juice for the average family, as well as satisfying the 
desire for beauty. Our citrus trees are of very high quality and commercial 
planters are requested to write for quantity prices. All citrus stock is sold 
balled, excepting for export. Shipping weight ranges from 50 to 75 pounds 
per tree. Shipping season begins in early March and lasts until fall. 
GRADING. Citrus trees are graded by caliper, measurement being made 
three inches above the bud.

Pink (or Thompson) Grapefruit. This is 
a sport of the Marsh Grapefruit, de¬ 
veloped in Florida and brought to Cali¬ 
fornia a few years ago. It has all of the 
good features of its parent, but the 
flesh is a decided pink in color. 
Nagami Kumquat. One of the most 
ornamental of the citrus fruits is this 
semi-dwarf tree from the Orient. Stands 
lower temperatures than other citrus. 
Attains a height of about 8 feet and is 
of a dense branching habit. Bears soon 
after planting. Makes a splendid tree 
when tubbed for the patio. 
Dancy Tangerine. The most popular of 
the Mandarin oranges. The tree is a 
strong grower and heavy bearer. The 
fruit is medium to large in size, of an 
intense orange red in color and flat¬ 
tened in shape. 
Satsuma Orange. One of the hardiest 
of all citrus fruits. The fruit is attractive 
and fine in quality. The good sized, flat¬ 
tened, deep orange fruits have a skin 
which separates readily, and sweet, 
rich flesh of pleasant flavor. 
Bearss Seedless Lime. This is a seed¬ 
less Tahiti lime and is the largest and 
finest of them all. The fruit resembles 
a small lemon and has all of the good 
qualities that one expects in a lime. The 
tree is a vigorous grower and produces 
heavy crops which mature in the sum¬ 
mer, when the lime is most in demand. 
Rangpur Lime. The hardiest of the 
limes, standing the same temperatures 
as the lemon. Fruit is roundish, medium 
sized, with orange-red skin. The deep 
orange flesh is high in acid and of good 
quality. 
Ruby Blood Orange. The best of the 
blood oranges. Fruit of medium size 
and very sweet and juicy. When fully 
ripe the flesh is blood-red, the color ex¬ 
tending through the peel to give a 
blush to the outside. The juice makes 
an attractive beverage and the fruit is 
fine to eat out of hand. 
j Washington Navel Orange. The well- 
known Navel, popular in all markets 
throughout the world, is California's 
most famous fruit variety. The fruit is 
large, beautiful to the eye, seedless, 
and unexcelled in quality. It possesses 
fine shipping qualities and the tree is 
precocious and prolific. November to 
April. 
^ Valencia Late Orange. The summer 
orange of California which begins to 
ripen at the close of the Navel season. 
The fruit is medium to large; oblong. 
The flesh is of good quality, containing 
abundant juice which makes this va¬ 
riety the standard juice orange. The 
tree attains large size and is a regular 
and very heavy producer. May to 
November. 
Eureka Lemon. The leading lemon for 
both commercial and home planting. 
The fruit is of good size, clear lemon 
color, and of the highest quality, with 
abundant juice and few seeds. The tree 
is almost thornless and blooms and pro¬ 
duces heavy crops throughout the year, 
with the bulk of the crop ripening dur¬ 
ing the spring and summer. This lemon 
is exceedingly prolific and probably 
bears heavier than any other citrus 
variety. 
Lisbon Lemon. This variety is some¬ 
what hardier than the Eureka, and 
hence is the predominating lemon north 
of the Tehachapi. The fruit is of medium 
size, high in quality, with few seeds. 
The tree is large, a good producer, but 
thorny. It bears throughout the year. 
Marsh Seedless Pomelo (Grapefruit). 
Known as "grapefruit," because the 
fruit hangs on the tree in clusters. This 
is the finest variety, grown almost to 
the exclusion of others. The fruit is 
very large, practically seedless, with 
abundant juice of the best quality. 
February to August. 
Every Home Has Room For a 
MEYER LEMON. 
Sometimes called the "Chinese 
dwarf lemon", the Meyer Lemon 
has a variety of adaptations that 
give it universal appeal. It makes 
a beautiful tubbed subject for the 
terrace or patio; planted close to¬ 
gether the shrub-like growth 
makes a beautiful medium-sized 
hedge; or allowed to grow natur¬ 
ally, it forms a bushy, dwarf tree. 
The Meyer Lemon thrives over a 
wide range, being at home on the 
coast or in the warm, interior val¬ 
leys. It flowers and fruits prac¬ 
tically the entire year. Available 
in gallon containers at $1.25 each.
