EUCALYPTUS FICIFOLIA—Spectacular bloom through many 
months. 
SOUTHERN MAGNOLIA 
Magnolia grandiflora. A magnificent tree in every respect. 
Big bold polished leaves, enormous fragrant saucer-shaped 
flowers of frosty white, stout limbs that defy the heaviest 
winds and wide spreading foliage that casts an alluring shade. 
What more could we ask in a tree? The answer is, we 
couldn’t. 50 ft. Hardy. Balled, good heads, 5-6 ft., $9.50; 
5-gal. containers, $3.75. 
PICTURESQUE OLIVE 
Olea europaea. While not natives, Olive Trees are as typ- 
ically Southern California as real estate offices, beautiful 
women and unusual weather. These trees not only thrive in 
our mild climate but the interesting arrangement of the rough 
trunk, gnarled branches and silvery foliage lend themselves 
particularly well to local types of architecture. Extremely 
drought resistant. Hardy. Balled, heavy tops, 6-7 ft., $8.00; 
5-6 ft., $6.50; 5-gal. containers, $3.75. 
LUXURIANT EVERGREEN PEAR 
Pyrus kawakami. Here is one tree that never looks any- 
thing but its best. Even in the coldest winters the artistic 
foliage is bright and clean. A tree of graceful drooping habit 
that lines its long branches with deep green varnished leaves. 
Bears fragrant white blossoms in spring. The pliant branches 
may easily be trained flat against a wall. Hardy. 12-15 ft. 
Balled, good heads, 7-8 ft., $18.50; 5-gal. containers, $5.00. 
CALIFORNIA LIVE OAK 
Quercus agrifolia. Most everyone seems to think the 
California Live Oak grows slowly but to the contrary we 
find that with just ordinary watering and care their growth 
compares favorably with any other good evergreen tree. We 
have grown sturdy spreading trees to a height of 12 ft. in 
four years. 40 ft. 5-gal. containers, $3.75. 
HOLLY OAK 
Quercus ilex. Handsome tree to 60 ft. Bright holly-like 
leaves. Clean of limb and trunk. A sturdy round-headed tree 
of elegant proportions. 5-gal. containers, $4.75. 
See page 51. 
The ornamental possibilities of the evergreen fruit- and 
nut-bearing trees should not be overlooked in planning your 
landscape design. Avocado trees are especially valuable for 
providing shade in the patio. The foliage and growing habits 
of Olive, Macadamia and most Citrus varieties are to be 
reccmmended. 
BRAZILIAN PEPPER 
Schinus terebinthifolius. A highly desirable tree for patio 
use as it is of modest height and of spreading habit. Airy 
glistening foliage and bright clusters of small pink berries. 
A grand little tree for protecting azaleas, ferns, begonias and 
other shade loving plants. 12-15 ft. Hardy. Balled, 8-9 ft., 
$19.50; 5-gal. containers, $3.50. 
TRISTANIA 
Tristania conferta. Little known here, this shaggy-barked 
Australian tree thrives in our warm climate and will eventu- 
ally be widely used. It is a tree to 70 ft. tall of moderate 
spread and rather dense habit. The 6-8 inch long leaves are 
bright green. We have seen it growing in both light and 
heavy soils with practically no attention. Grows rapidly. 
Hardy except in coldest locations. 5-gal. containers, $3.75. 
GRACEFUL EVERGREEN ELM 
Ulmus parvifolia. Graceful beyond our feeble powers of 
description. We will simply tell you that here is a tree that 
requires no lengthy sales talk to put across. If you haven't 
the tree, your neighbor has. You'll find him always eager 
to sing its praises. 15-20 ft. Hardy. Balled specimens, 8-9 
ft, with 3 ft. spread, $18.50; 5-gal. containers, $4.00. 
CALIFORNIA BAY 
Umbellularia californica. A native of our California moun- 
tains that is perfectly at home in the valley. The tree grows 
to about 40 feet in height and half that in width. The sturdy 
branches are lined with bright green lance-like leaves that 
emit a spicy aroma similar to that of the Sweet Bay. The fo- 
liage is not affected by extremes of temperature and the tree 
thrives in most any location. 5-gal. containers, $3.75. 

BAUHINIA PURPUREA—Outstanding small tree.
