TO OUR PATRONS 
VISITORS are cordially invited to inspect our plant- 
ings during the season. The Polyanthus Primroses are 
at their best during March and the first part of April. 
... In April and May the first crop of Delphinium seed- 
lings is at its height .. . Breeding stock of tuberous Be- 
gonias in our greenhouses is at its best in June and 
July .. . In August and September over a million 
seedlings of tuberous Begonias can be seen in full 
bloom in our lath houses . .. New crops of Delphinium 
seedlings are brought into flower during August and 
September ... We are situated four miles out of Santa 
Cruz, as can be seen on the map. When coming from 
Santa Cruz, take the first side road to the right when 
past city limits and follow it to our nursery . . . If com- 
ing from Watsonville, turn left in Soquel, as indicated

A WORD OF THANKS 
We are indebted to you who have contributed to our 
success in business and made it possible for us to ex- 
periment with breeding and improvement of plants on 
a larger and larger scale . .. The process of breeding, 
selecting and eliminating is naturally slow, and no 
spectacular achievements can be had overnight. The 
higher the standard, the harder and costlier it is to bring 
further improvement .. . Our appreciation can best be 
expressed by giving you each year better value and 
higher quality for your money than we have been able 
to do before. 
At the Oakland Spring Flower Show we have won 
the Gold Medal for two consecutive years with our 
Delphinium Hybrids. 
We have also been awarded the Gold Medal for 
our exhibits of tuberous Begonias at the Golden Gate 
International Exposition in San Francisco, and the 
Silver Medal at the World’s Fair in New York, besides 
numerous awards of merit for our Montbretias, Prim- 
roses, Ranunculus and Freesias.
