PLANT EVERGREEN LIVE OAKS 
O A K S—Quercus 
Live Oaks are rapidly becoming the most popular 
Shade Tree in the South, because they are Evergreen, 
and make such a Shapely tree for any purpose they 
may be used. The Spanish type of Live Oaks are the 
Fastest growing variety. 
We have the complete stock from Acorns gathered 
in Florida from the choicest isolated groves in -exist- 
ance, so there is not a chance of hybridizing. This 
true type of FAST-GROWING OAKS is designed to 
revise the idea that Live Oaks are a slow growing 
tree, much different from the ordinary native Live 
Oak tree.

Fast Growing Evergreen Spanish Type Live Oak 
Nursery grown Live Oak Trees Live and thrive 
under all conditions when the Trees have been trans- 
planted and root-pruned and properly Balled and Bur- 
lapped from the right kind of soil and pruned properly 
as they are dug for shipment. 
Our Oaks are given careful attention, all forks 
being cut off, with the center stem retained, fore- 
ing all branches to come out horizontally from the 
main trunk. With this training, the center stem 
continues to grow upward, and the horizontal branch- 
es form a beautiful tree. 

Spanish Live Oak trees planted along the front of our Nursery 
showing how they naturally shape after a short period of growth. 
LIVE OAK Quereurevireimions 
There is nothing more beautiful than the true 
“SPANISH” LIVE OAK. This type has thick dark 
green, oblong, pointed leaves that glisten in the sun- 
light, the under-side being a grayish-green color. Al- 
ways clean, rich foliage. Very straight bodies. From 
young seedlings we trim to single stem in center, not 
allowing forks. In years to come, forked trees may 
split open and ruin the tree.
