Gates Cactus Gardens from the Air 
The above airplane view shows our fifteen-acre nursery only eighteen 
months after we purchased the land. It is located at 300 to 350 
Hillside Avenue, in the Norco District, five miles northeast of Corona. 
This spot is just half way between the desert and the sea. It is warm 
and dry without the burning heat of the desert. After ten years’ 
experience in the commercial culture of cactus and succulents, we 
chose this as one of the most promising locations. We have not been 
disappointed. 
We are always glad to have you call and see how we grow the 
finest of stock. In the fields are long rows of well kept stock plants. 
In the flat yards and houses are somewhere around a million plants 
either ready for shipment or coming along rapidly. If you arrive 
by stage or train, just call Corona 626 and we will meet you. 
GATES SAMPLERS 
Owing to the great number of kinds we offer, we do not send 
out free samples. In order to show what the different kinds, sizes 
and prives are, we make up GATES SAMPLER ASSORTMENTS of all 
kinds and sizes in stock, ranging in price to 15c each, labeled with 
printed labels and priced per 100, packed F.O.B. Corona as follows: 
Cactus only $3.00, Succulents only $3.00, Cactus and Succulents com- 
bined $5.50 NOTE:—No specified number of plants is promised, but 
Gates Scmplers always give good value and on account of the cost 
of individual labeling a second Gates Sampler will not be shipped 
to a customer within ninety days from the previous shipment. The 
COMBINED GATES SAMPLER contains over a hundred plants.
