Mountain Mahogany 
*Cercocarpus alnifolius, “Alder Leaved Mountain Mahogany.” A 
rare species from Catalina Island. Has much larger leaves than the 
Common Mountain Mahogany. A very desirable shrub. Gallon cans, 
75c; 5 gallon cans, $2.00. 
*Cercocarpus betuloides, ‘Mountain Mahogany.” Graceful arching 
branches with small wrinkled leaves of rich deep green. Flowers 
small, pale yellow, rather inconspicuous, but followed by interesting 
feathery tailed seeds. Rapid in growth, thriving in either sun or 
shade, making a very cheerful appearance in all stages of its 
growth. One of the most useful of the native shrubs, excellent for 
foundation planting against a wall or building and can be used to 
great advantage in a shrubbery group. Will grow with very little 
water, at the same time water does not seem to hurt it, and it will 
stand ordinary garden culture. Gallon cans, 50c; 5 gallon cans, $1.75.
