Live Qaks are Everlasting! 
The Shade Tree of the South, nothing can compare to the MAJESTY of the OAKS— 
because of their LONGEVITY, everlasting beauty and RAPID GROWTH, the Oaks are 
now preferred to all other Shade trees. 

SPANISH LIVE OAK—THE SHADE TREE OF THE SOUTH 
THE HUNT FOR A FAST GROWING 
TYPE OF LIVE OAK 
For many years we have strived to develop a 
type of Evergreen Live Oak tree which we could 
recommend to our customers as far superior to any 
known Shade tree, and which was an evergreen, 
rapid growing, and of a lasting variety. We finally 
found such a tree several years ago, the tree which 
we had longed for, a special strain of the Evergreen 
Live Oak, which was of Spanish origin, rich glossy 
green foliage, very fast growing, and excellently 
shaped from small tree to larger Specimens. We 
immediately obtained stock of the trees and began 
to grow them in our Nurseries for our customers. 
TODAY WE HAVE 
THOUSANDS OF 
TREES 
After planting in our 
fields the first trees, 
we have continued to 
increase the quantities 
propagated each year 
until now our demands 
run so heavy on this 
fast growing tree, that 
we plant thousands of 
them each year. The 
more we furnish our customers each year, the more 
we are called on for another year, consequently we 
keep up our stock with annual plantings as the 
various size trees are dug and sold each season. 
OUR B&B LIVE OAK TREES LIVE AND GROW 
We pride our experience very highly in the 
success we have had in developing perfect results 
in transplanting B&B Live Oaks from our fields. 
We select the right type of soil on which we grow 
the trees, developing good fiborous roots, and dig 
the trees with goed solid balls of earth, securely 
wrap and tie when necessary; and prune the tops 
as we consider necessary, and in this way, our 
customers receive 100% 
results in transplanting 
-The trees begin new 
growth imme diately 
after planting, and de- 
velop rapidly after- 
wards. Some customers 
receive four feet of new 
growth the first year. 
A selection of sizes 
available for this season 
are shown in this Cata- 
log, with prices accord- 
ing to size and quality. 
These Trees were properly pruned—Notice how the top branches have developed by the second year.
