26 GRIFFING NURSERIES 
OAKS-Quercus 
Nursery grown Live Oak Trees live and thrive under 
all conditions when the Trees have been root-pruned 
and properly Balled from the right kind of balling soil 
and pruned properly as they are dug. 
PLANT EVERGREEN OAKS 
Live Oaks are rapidly becoming the most popular Shade 
Tree in the South, because they are evergreen, and 
because they make such a shapely tree for any purpose 
they may be used. Our Spanish type of Live Oaks are 
the fastest growing variety, but even then it takes Sev- 
eral years for a small tree to grow large enough to give 
shade. There is nothing more beautiful than the true 
“Spanish” Live Oak. This type has thick dark green, ob- 
long, pointed leaves that glisten in the sunlight, the 
under side being a grayish-green color. 

Fast Growing Evergreen Spanish Live Oak 
LIVE OAK (Spanish Type) Quercus virginiana 
We have the complete stock from Acorns gathered in Florida from 
the choicest insolated groves in existence, so there is not a chance 
of hybridizing. This true type of fast-growing Oaks are destined 
to revise the idea that Live Oaks are a slow growing tree, much 
different from the ordinary native Live Oak in Louisiana and Texas, 
which we call the Scrub Live Oak, but takes too long to grow. 
Always clean, rich foliage. Very straight bodies. From young seed- 
lings we trim to single stem in center, not allowing forks even 
on our 20 foot trees. In centuries to come these forked trees may 
split open and ruin the tree.
