ENGLISH WALNUTS 
WALNUTS 
Our English Walnuts are budded on 3-Blood Royal roots as de- 
scribed below. Walnuts should be planted with the bud union 
or graft an inch or more above the soil level as a caution against 
infestation of Oak Root Fungus present in some soils. Trees 
planted too deep will not thrive. English Walnuts on 3-Blood 
Royal Root will grow faster, make larger trees and produce 
heavier crops.

EUREKA. NT42. Popular Northern California variety. Large, ob- 
long nuts of fine appearance. Shells are rather thick, well sealed; 
hold up well in handling. Splendid large upright tree. Fine com- 
mercial variety and a good ornamental shade tree. 
FRANQUETTE. NT43. One of the most important commercial vari- 
eties, popular wherever the English Walnut is grown. Nuts are 
large, handsome, rather conical in shape. Shells are medium 
thin. Kernels are unusually light in color and of the best quality. 
Trees large and vigorous. This variety is latest to bloom and 
seldom loses a crop through frost injury. 
PAYNE SEEDLING. NT44. An outstanding producer and early 
bearer. Nuts fully as large as Franquette. Thin shell, high quality 
kernel. Trees do not grow as large as other varieties so may be 
planted closer. A splendid shade tree for the small city lot. 
ROYAL WALNUT SEEDLINGS (NT49) 
This more vigorous, healthy strain of Walnut understock is ex- 
clusive with us. These seedlings are grown from the seed of 
Lieb’s Frost-fighter Walnuts, discovered by the late Frank Lieb of 
San Jose. Due to their hardiness, Royal Walnut seedlings grow 
more rapidly than the common black walnut seedling. Royal 
seedlings also make an excellent, handsome, fast-growing shade 
tree. Plant Royal Walnut seedlings for quick results.

PECANS 
Here’s something different for your home orchard. Not only do 
Pecans produce the much in demand nuts, but they also make 
a wonderful shade tree. Because of the limited quantity of 
fibrous roots on the long tap root of Pecans, they must be care- 
fully handled when planting. Extra caution should be taken 
to keep the roots moist at all times before planting. Pecans 
may start out slow but will grow very rapidly the second and 
successive years. Add to your gardening enjoyment by plant- 
ing a Roeding’s Quality Pecan tree.
