(Letters atter varieties indicate sizes available. The last two sizes are not usually available 
with flower buds). 
M. soulangeana, SAUCER MAGNOLIA, (5). ABCEFG. This hybrid of M. liliflora x denudata 
(conspicua) is the basis of many fine varieties. Makes a very large shrub or if so trained even 
a fair sized tree. Flowers of medium size, have nine petals, ground color practically white, but 
well marked with purple on outside toward base. Very free bloomer before leaves appear. 
M. soulangeana amabilis, (5). BCDEFG. Flowers are very large with petals up to four inches 
long; somewhat purplish at first becoming nearly but not entirely white when fully opened. 
Very early and superb in every way. 
M. soulangeana lenneii, LENNE MAGNOLIA, (5). BC. Bears enormous balloon shaped, very 
deep ruddy purple flowers. One of the latest to bloom. Very strong grower. Rare and highly 
esteemed for its huge flowers and gorgeous color. 
M. soulangeana San Jose. ABCDEF. For several years we have observed here in town a beau- 
tiful specimen which does not conform to any other variety we have ever seen so there is noth- 
ing to do but give it a name. It is by far the earliest Magnolia we know of, commencing to bloom 
here in early January, a month ahead of any others. In spite of this it has a long blooming sea- 
son. The fragrant flowers are very large with petals up to five inches long! Color rosy purple 
toward base, lighter toward tips. 
M. stellataa STAR MAGNOLIA, (5). BCDEG. Entirely distinct from soulangeana group. 
Practically always a shrub and of rather slow growth. Petals average about fifteen; are about 
two inches long and very narrow. Flowers faintly flushed in bud but open white. Very preco- 
cious; even small plants bloom most profusely. Indeed charming. Our stock this season is ex- 
ceptionally bushy and loaded with flower buds. 
Flowering Quinees 
CHAENOMELES (CYDONIA) 
CATHAYENSIS HYBRIDS, (5) 
These comprise a new species, C. californica, which originated in our nursery and was 
introduced in 1939. It is a hybrid, C. cathayensis x superba corallina, usually of vigorous, rather 
erect growth. Branches are plentifully supplied with short, thorny laterals, making a framework 
for great masses of bloom. The flowers are large and colors brilliant. Some are extremely early. 
Aes Caen 
Group A 
Introduced in 1940 
ENCHANTRESS. Shell-pink, a unique color in Quinces. Flowers are frequently 134 inches 
wide; greatly admired by visitors. Very free blooming. One of the best. 
MASTERPIECE. Rosy scarlet, bright and cheerful, exceedingly free blooming and one of the 
earliest to flower. 
MOUNT EVEREST. Buds lightly flushed lavender-rose. Open flowers pure white with faint 
lavender tips turning to blush-pink when aging. 
ROSEMARY. Deep rose; gorgeoue color; extra heavy bloomer. One of the very best. — 
SUNSET GLOW. Red to dark rose, quite brilliant, blooms heavily and is early. This early 
crop is followed by a second lot of blooms. 
Introduced Spring 1941 
**PINK BEAUTY. Clear pink lightly shaded rose. A decidedly free bloomer and although 
among the very earliest of this group, it bears three successive crops giving flowers for a period 
of three months here (San Jose).
