PODOCARPUS 
One of our most attractive trees or shrubs. The fruit 
is very peculiar, as it has a blue stem with a red ball 
at the end. Can be planted at the water’s edge without 
injury from salt sprays. One of the most versatile trees 
grown, for borders and groups, or in individual speci- 
mens.

“We believe these are the most beautiful live oaks we have seen. 
The residents in Country Club Estates Subdivision have the same 
opinion of the trees which we have. If these trees do well this sum- 
mer and fall, we will be able to give you an order for approximately 
500 trees of this size, four and five inch caliper pruned to one 
trunk, to be delivered during the months of January and February, 
1942. 
“The other live oak trees which have been furnished from your 
nursery two and three years ago have done exceptionally well. As 
an experiment we set out a certain number of gathered forest grown 
trees about the same size as those purchased from your nursery. 
The trees secured from the Griffing Nursery have out-stripped con- 
siderably the other live oak trees. The trees furnished by others are 
infected with scale. We have not found any scale on the trees pur- 
chased from you.
