We carry many varieties of Deciduous Fruits not listed 
in this catalogue. 
APPLES 
Each, $1.50. 
Red Astrachan. Our choice in a “snappy” apple for local 
planting. The red and yellow fruit has a delightful tangy 
flavor and is crisp and juicy if picked as soon as ripe. Fine 
for sauce, pies or eating fresh. And the tree really bears 
here. July. 
White Pearmain. A greenish yellow apple, slightly elon- 
gated, of mild flavor and quite juicy. A favorite for cooking. 
Keeps well. November. 
Yellow Delicious. Waxy yellow fruit, crisp, juicy and of 
mild sweet flavor. Keeps well. September. 
APRICOTS 
Each, $1.50. 
Newcastle. A medium size light orange fruit of average 
quality. Comes into bearing nearly a month earlier than other 
apricots. May. 
Royal. For eating fresh, canning or drying this variety is 
unsurpassed. Good sized red cheeked fruit, sweet, juicy and 
of outstanding flavor. A heavy bearer in this area. June. 
CHERRIES 
Each, $1.75. 
Locally, sweet cherries do not produce satisfactorily ex- 
cept at high elevations. Plant Tartarian with other sweet 
varieties for pollenization. 
Bing. A black cherry firm of flesh and delicious. June. 
One customer phoned us early last summer in a great state 
of excitement. “Mr. T., what in the world shall I do with the 
big crop of peaches that is setting on the trees I bought of 
you last January?” (And this only five months after she had 
purchased a few of our super, balled Peach and Nectarine 
trees.) Well, we told her to thin them out a little and enjoy 
the rest later. We were tempted to tell her that if she had 
more than she needed we could take care of the surplus. 
b 
Morello. Bears anywhere. Heavy crops of good sized red 
fruit, rather tart to be eaten fresh, but remarkably fine for 
cooking. Requires no cross pollenization. June. 
Royal Anne. Large red cheeked yellow fruit. Sweet. Late 
June. 
Tartarian. Big black fruit of excellent flavor. Early June. 
CRABAPPLES 
Each, $1.50. 
Transcendent. Pickled, preserved or in jelly making no 
other fruit approaches the crabapple for full satisfying flavor. 
And this particular variety is head and shoulders above any 
other. Red striped yellow fruit in great abundance. August. 
FIGS 
Each, $1.50. 5-gal. containers, $3.00. 
Adriatic. Matures enormous crops of good-sized fruit, 
ereen outside and a brilliant red inside. Unmatched for jams 
or preserves, Also sweet and of good flavor for eating fresh. 
Brown Turkey. Particularly recommended when space is 
limited as it does not attain the large size of some other va- 
rieties. Extremely large figs, brownish-purple without, bright 
red within. Fine grained and sweet. As the best fruit ap- 
pears on the new growth heavy pruning is advisable. The 
most satisfactory fig for Southern California. 
Kadota. A most valuable fig for any purpose. Fruit me- 
dium to large, amber inside, greenish-yellow without. Small 
seeds. The tender juicy flesh is almost as sweet as sugar 
itself. Medium sized tree. May be either pruned or left 
unpruned. Not a consistent bearer in this locality. 
Mission. An enormous tree that produces almost unbe- 
lievable crops of medium sized blue-black figs. Flesh is dark 
red, seeds small. Sweet and flavorful in the extreme. Tree 
requires no pruning. 
NECTARINES 
Each, $1.50. 
Banquet. Produced by the University of California, Los 
Angeles, during hybridizing trials to perfect a Nectarine 
suitable for our warm climate. A partial description by Prof. 
Lammerts follows: ‘“Ripens early August. Size large for nec- 
tarine, 21%4-21% inches in diameter; very regular in shape. 

BROWN TURKEY FIG 
Most satisfactory for local planting. 
NAGAMI KUMQUAT. Enormous crops 
of bright orange fruit. 
ROYAL APRICOT 
Heavy crops in June.
