To the planter abroad California's variation of 
climatic and soil conditions is particularly signif¬ 
icant. Aware of the varied conditions under which 
trees and plants are grown in different parts of the 
world, the California Nursery Company has estab¬ 
lished its growing grounds at locations where fruit 
trees, grapevines, roses, bulbs and ornamental 
plants can be produced under conditions most 
favorable for each particular type of plant material. 
This, combined with our extra care at every stage 
of production, is reflected in the success reported 
by planters with our nursery stock in all parts of the 
world. Among the many customers who choose 
"Roeding's Quality" trees and plants year after 
year are governmental Departments of Agriculture, 
official agencies, large growers, and discriminating 
planters known for their successful operations. 
Each year during shipping season hundreds of ex¬ 
port orders are assembled at our shipping depot. 
After careful selection, preparation, packing and 
marking, our Export Department dispatches them 
by the most rapid and direct route, by rail, steamer, 
or air line. Our long record of safe deliveries to re¬ 
mote places is extremely important to the planter 
abroad, for it assures him material in excellent con¬ 
dition for planting. 
New Zealand: We are pleased to say that the ship¬ 
ment reached us in good condition and the trees 
are making good growth. 
Proper packing insures your order of safe delivery. 
A Few Lines From Letters 
Our Customers Send Us 
Ecuador: The undersigned Minister of Agriculture 
hereby certifies: That the shipment of fruit trees 
from California Nursery Company has arrived in 
excellent condition. Because of the careful packing 
only two trees of the total 250 appear to have shown 
any effects of the long shipment, (signed) Minister 
of Agriculture—Quito, Ecuador. 
Colombia: Your shipment to the National Ministry 
of Agriculture was received in very good condition, 
and we are well pleased with this order. 
Mexico: You will be glad to know that the grape¬ 
vines obtained from you are making wonderful 
growth. I have decided to increase the original 
planting, and am sending you my new order. 
China. The order of fruit trees, berry plants and 
grapevines shipped by you December 15, reached 
us on March 30, on the Tibetan border. We were 
anxious lest the stock dry out and die before it 
reached us, but your packing was so excellent that 
plenty of moisture was retained and nearly all the 
stock made a vigorous growth the first year.

IMPORTANT NOTE: 
Our shipping season begins about January 1, and lasts only 
until April 1, approximately, of each year. This is our winter 
season in California, when the fruit trees and other decidu¬ 
ous nursery stock may be safely transplanted. Since 
hundreds of orders are accumulated throughout the year for 
shipment during this brief period, it is important to place 
your order at the earliest possible date, so that stock may be 
reserved for you. Late orders sometimes find our supplies of 
the more popular varieties depleted by advance sales.
