One of the 
MOST COMPLETE STOCKS OF GOOD PLANTS 
in Southern California 
TUTTLE BROS. NURSERIES 
DEAR FRIEND: 
The fact that you have our catalogue generally means you have visited our nursery. However, if you 
are one of those we have not had the pleasure of meeting, we would like to tell you we grow several 
thousands of varieties of ornamental and fruiting trees, shrubs, roses, vines and perennials. And to judge 
‘from what our friends tell us we grow them a little better than the other fellow does. 
We know our stock is good. We're somewhat in the same position as a man that Dad used to enjoy 
telling about. This Joe Simonds had a brick yard here in the early days and in connection with it ran a 
boarding house for his help. He was a huge prosperous-looking man, weighing somewhere between 200 
and 300 pounds. In the course of conversation with a prospective employee the prospect, among other 
questions, asked Mr. Simonds about the food. Joe promptly answered, “I eat it.” The prospect took 
one quick look at Joe’s expansive waist-line and answered, “I'll take the job,” and he did. Well, anyway, 
we plant Tuttle Bros. products at home and must modestly admit we're pretty well satisfied with 
the results. 
Now, a few words about our catalogue: Following descriptions of most varieties we try to tell you 
heights plants will grow; locations for planting and approximate frost hardiness. Please understand this 
information is only approximate. Local differences of soil and weather require that we be not too definite, 
We'll be glad to go into details when we see you. 
We have, tried to be as accurate in our information as possible. We believe no other nursery catalogue 
has done better. 
You are very busy these days, as is everybody else. If you haven’t the time or live too far away to 
see us often, phone or mail your order. We'll send you the best we have. And in sending remittance don’t 
forget the 214% sales tax. 
Sincerely yours, 
TUTTLE BROS.
