America’s Greatest Family of Nurserymen—6 Generations of Starks—With 134 Years’ Experience 
For over 134 years—6 generations—the life-work 
of the Stark Bro’s has been to comb the world for 
improved New Fruit Creations—better flavored 
fruits, larger sized fruits, more beautifully colored 
fruits and trees that bear younger, produce bigger 
and more regular crops. Since 1816 the Starks have 
pioneered in the betterment of American Nursery 
methods and fruit tree growing. 
A host of exclusive Stark and Burbank Creations 
have won the commendation of the World’s most 
distinguished horticulturists and are proving the 
Biggest Profit-Makers in America’s orchards. 
50 years ago Stark Bro’s made possible the con- 
tinuation of scientific fruit breeding by Luther 
Burbank. As a consequence of this vision, faith and 
financial support, Burbank named Stark Bro’s 
exclusively to carry on his experimental work. 
While proud of the Success 134 years of Research, 
Testing and Experience have brought, Stark Bro’s 
are always on the alert for even Newer, Better 
Fruits and more beautiful Ornamental Plants.
