Broadleaf Evergreen Trees 
The term "broad-leaved evergreen” used to describe the trees in 
this section refers to habit of holding the leaves from year to year. 
Of ccurse the old leaves fall off but at no season is the tree de- 
nuded. In contrast with the conifers these trees do not bear cones 
and practically all have kread leaves and flowers. Among the 
showiest are Acacia, Eucalyptus, Grevillea, Jacaranda, Lagunaria 
and Magnolia. In this list you will find trees suitable for every 
need. 

Some of the following trees may be secured from medium sized 
trees to large full specimens. We will be glad to quote you prices 
on request. 
Acacia Baileyana (Bailey’s Acacia). Possibly the most popular 
of all the flowering Acacias because of its extremely heavy masses 
of pale yellow flowers in ecrly sp-ing. This Acacia is very fast 
growing, developing a tree from 15 to 25 feet in height with a 
very spreading habit. This is one of the best trees for quick growth 
and beautiful effect. Gal. containers, 45c; 5-gal. containers, $1.65. 
Acacia dealbata (Silver Wattle). Where quick shade and a com- 
paratively large tree is desired this plant is one of our best. It 
attains a height of about 60 feet with a well balanced spreading 
top. The flowers on this variety are very pale yellow and not 
spectacular but give it a very pretty appearance during the spring 
months. Gal. containers, 45c; 5-gal. containers, $1.65. 
Acacia floribunda (Everblooming Acacia). This is one of the 
smaller growing tree type Acacias that gives almost the same 
effect in shape as a weeping willow. This variety flowers over 
a longer period than any other Acacia that we know of, being in 
bloom practically all the time. The flowers are pale yellow and 
well spaced throughout the entire tree. This variety grows to 
about 20 feet in height and spread. Gal. containers, 45c; 5-gal. 
containers, $1.65. 
Acacia latifolia (Broadleaf Acacia). This very spreading variety 
of Acacia develops very brilliant green foliage of a very dense 
nature. This feature makes it an excellent plant to use where one 
wishes a solid screen effect up to 20 feet in height. The natural 
habit of this variety is to grow as a large spreading shrub. How- 
ever, it can easily be trained into a single stem tree. The flowers 
are a bright yellow. Gal. containers, 45c; 5-gal. containers, $1.65. 
Acacia melanoxylon (Black Acacia). This is probably the longest 
lived of all the Acacia family. It grows rapidly to approximately 
60 feet with a well shaped broad conical head. The older trees 
develop a very rich dark green foliage. This is an excellent tree 
where a fast growth and dense shade is desired. Gal. 45c; 5-gal. 
$1.65. 
Acacia Podalyriafolia (Pearl Acacia). One of the best small trees. 
Unusually large blooms of brilliant yellow flowers that are fragrant 
cover this tree from November to January. Large beautiful gray 
foliage. Approximate height 15 ft. Gal. 45c; 5-gal. $1.65. 
Camphora officinalis. This hardy tree has proven itself a very 
satisfactory importation to Southern California because our 
climate is very similar to the climate from which the tree was im- 
ported. The color of new leaf growth in the spring and the old 
leaves just prior to their falling give the tree a reddish cast which 
is very attractive. The average height of this tree is about 30 
feet, although there are a few specimens much larger than this. 

RED FLOWERING EUCALYPTUS 

This tree by the way is of the Cinnamon family and the one from 
which medicinal camphor is made. Gal. containers, 50c; 5S-gal. 
containers, $1.70. 
Casuariana stricta. This hardy tree resembles a pine in appear- 
ance and is frequently mistaken for one. It is one of the few trees 
that we have which has consistently maintained its identical 
characteristics down through the centuries from prehistoric times. 
Its average height in Southern California is about 50 feet and be- 
cause of its drought resistant qualities makes an excellent tree to 
use. Gal. containers, 35c; 5-gal. containers, $1.50. 
Ceratonia siliqua. Of all the imported trees that we have in 
Southern California, the Carob tree is possibly the most generally 
suited to our conditions. It is extremely hardy and as trees go, 
very clean, and so far has developed no insect or disease pest. 
The top develops a very dense dark green shade and takes on 
about the same general shape as our native Live Oaks. This 
tree will thrive on an absolute minimum of water after once estab- 
lished. Gal. containers, 50c; 5-gal. containers, $1.75. 
Eucalyptus ficifolia (Scarlet Flowering Gum). This variety, noted 
for its flowering ability, very seldom attains a height of over 20 
feet, and develops a very compact, spreading top. The large 
clusters of flaming scarlet flowers appear in masses in the sum- 
mer. The roots of this variety are less detrimental to surrounding 
plant life than some of the other Eucalyptus. Gal. containers, 50c; 
5-gal. containers, $1.75. 
Eucalyptus citriodora (Lemon Scented Gum). Of all the Eucalyptus 
family, this one is possibly the most graceful and striking in 
appearance, because of the very straight, pure white trunk and 
soft, feathery tufts of foliage when seen from a slight distance. 
It also has one very odd characteristic in that the foliage has a 
scent usually foreign to the Eucalyptus family, it being similar 
to that of the lemon verbena. Gal. containers, 40c; 5-gal. con- 
tainers, $1.65. 
Eucalyptus corynocalyx (Sugar Gum). This variety attains a 
height of about 75 feet and grows very fast. This is one of the 
best varieties to use where the summers get particularly hot and 
it is also extremely drought resistant. Gal. containers, 40c; 5-gal. 
containers, $1.65.
