FRUIT TREES 
We all realize the importance now of a few fruit 
trees about the place—their healthful properties, the 
added enjoyment of fruits properly ripened on the 
trees. Also some of our tastiest varieties are prac- 
tically unobtainable in the markets. 
The shade and ornamental va‘ue of everoreen trees 
such as Avocado and Citrus should not be over- 
looked. 
If limited for planting space, we can always find 
room for some of the brush fruits such as Guava, Ber- 
ries and Grapes or possibly a Strawberry bed. 
Artichoke, Rhubarb or Asparagus also may be 
grown in limited areas. 
CITRUS FRUITS 
Citrus fruit trees may be planted here through the 
entire year. 
Wrap each tree as soon as planted with a 2-inch- 
wide strip of burlap (or other coarse material) cover- 
ing the trunk from the soil level to the first branches. 
Plant the tree only to the depth of the soil in the 
ball or container in which you receive it. 
Trees should be spaced from 16 to 20 feet apart 
except that dwarf citrus should be planted 6 to 8 
feet apart. 
FOR DELICIOUS DRINKS 
Calamondin. A dense glossy small-leaved citrus shrub that 
produces incredible quantities of small fruit, orange-red with- 
in and without. The juice is greatly prized for use in drinks. 
Highly valued either in the garden or for pot culture. Each, 
$6.75. 

MARSH SEEDLESS GRAPEFRUIT 
Ripen here after the desert grapefruit is off the market 

VALENCIA ORANGE 
Juiceful fruit through Summer and Fall. 
See page 4. 
GRAPEFRUIT 
Marsh Seedless Grapefruit. A particular advantage in 
planting this superb variety is that, locally, the fruit ripens 
after the Arizona and Coachella fruit of the same variety is 
off the market. So, if you want grapefruit for use during the 
warm summer months you most certainly should plant at 
least one or two Marsh Seedless. The enormous creamy- 
yellow fruit is generally thin skinned, cram full of delicious 
juice and is practically seedless, Large deep green leaves and 
many branches form a dense tree of symmietrical proportions. 
June to August. Each, $5.95. 
Pink Thompson Grapefruit. Identical to the preceding va- 
riety except for its pink flesh. Lends a pleasing color and 
flavor to any fruit drink. Each, $6.75. 
LEMONS 
Eureka Lemon. A single tree will keep the average family 
well supplied throughout the year. The large, bright-yellow, 
highly acid fruit is practically seedless, And what is more 
satisfying on a warm summer day than a clear cold glass of 
lemonade? Mother used to put a little lemon juice and rind 
in prune pie. Got to thinking about that pie before we went 
to sleep last night—sure was good! Each, $5.95, 
Meyer Lemon. 
$6.25. 
(See next page for description.) Each, 
LIMES 
Bearss Lime. Bears heavy summer crops of large, seed- 
less, acid fruit of the true lime flavor. The tree attains large 
size, is almost thornless and hardier than the Mexican variety. 
Hach, $6.25, 
Owing to the fact that our catalogue must of necessity be 
printed months in advance of the season for which it is in- 
tended, some price changes may be necessary.
