“Giant Oaks from Little Acorns Grow”’ 
This season we are offering a number of shrubby plants in 
small size from 24-inch pots which we have grown especially for 
mail orders. Our customers in California and in similar climates 
will find these to be a most economical way of getting a start of 
some shrubs and those in others climates will welcome them 
also. The larger sizes are often too big to set out in pots or porch 
boxes or tubs but these little plants are just right. Packing and 
postage on these are at the rate of 25c for 3. 
OLEANDERS 
Oleanders (Nerium oleander). Large shrub equally useful and at 
home along the coast or in the hot desert valleys where they 
are the showiest summer flowering shrubs. Oleanders have been 
known since ancient times and have been popular as tub plants 
in cold regions, being stored in the cellar over winter. Why not 
try some of these extra fine varietics in tubs. Gal., 75c; from 
24’ pots 35c each.

POINSETTIA GERANIUM 
POINSETTIA GERANIUMS 
Red Poinsettia Geranium. A novelty that is really different. Al- 
though the individual flowers are small they make quite a show 
in the cluster when the plants are fully in bloom. Individual 
petals long and narrow, suggesting a Poinsettia, and the same 
bright red color. 50c each. 
EPIDENDRUM O’BRIENIANUM 
The easiest of all orchids for anybody to grow. They make large 
clumps in good soil and most of the summer are covered with clus- 
ters of bright red flowers. Flowers are long lasting and the straight 
stems can easily be cut. May be grown indoors in pots where the 
climate is colder. 2 plants for $1.50, postpaid. Can ship at any time. 

HY DRANGEAS

Hydrangea, French Hybrids. Lovely low shrubs, 3 to 4 feet high with

ored flowers. Individual florets very large.

finest potted specimens for indoor use. Can be set outdoors in 
summer. Colors are not dependable in any hydrangea and any 
change in color in your garden is no indication that we have 
sent the wrong variety.
