Roeding’s Quality 
ATTENTION HOME ORCHARDISTS: 
When planning your home orchard, be sure to include two 
or more Nut trees. Nuts not only are valuable when served 
as a delicacy, but are very practical in home cooking. Wal- 
nuts and Pecans serve a dual purpose when planted as a 
shade tree and a part of the home orchard. Years of 
experience in raising Roeding’s Quality Nut Trees enables 
us to produce Nut trees that can “‘take it." 
Add to the enjoyment of your home orchard by planting 
some of the following Roeding’s Quality Nut Trees: 
NT23. 
NEW FILBERT “ROYAL.” The new “Royal” 
filbert trees bear large, glossy, well-filled, 
soft shell nuts. The tree is a good heavy 
producer. Needs a pollenizer. Barcelona 
is recommended for pollenizer, for early 
blooms; Duchilly for mid-summer; and 
Daviana for the late blooms. The bark of the 
filbert is very thin and will sunburn easily, 
killing the tree. All the trees should be pro- 

a

or 10 for $17.50. 
BARCELONA. NT21. Best commercial vari- 
ety. Most Filbert plantings comprise 80 per 
cent Barcelona. Requires pollenizer. 3-4’ 
grade $1.50 each; 10 or more $1.25 each. 
DUCHILLY. NT22. Good quality; large size; 
fine pollenizer. 3-4’ grade $1.50 each; 10 or

DRAKE'S SEEDLING NT1. Bears abundant 
crops as it is a late bloomer and is seldom 
injured by late frosts. Medium sized nut, 
roundish in shape. Medium soft shell. Kernel 
is short and plump with rich flavor. Good

I.X.L. NT2. Sturdy upright tree, producing 
large nuts which are easily hulled. Soft 
smooth shell has fine color without bleach- 
ing. Kernel is large and plump. Plant with 
Texas or Nonpareil. 
JORDANOLO. NT3. A recent introduction 
similar to Ne Plus Ultra, but has smoother 
kernels. Bears abundant crops of large, long, 
soft-shelled nuts, easily shelled. Plant with 
Ne Plus for pollination. 
NE PLUS ULTRA. NT4. Tree is a strong 
grower. It is a regular and heavy bearer of 
long, narrow, soft-shelled nuts. Hulls freely, 
and is a commercial favorite. Very large ker- 
nel, sweet and highly flavored. Plant with 
Nonpareil for pollenizer. 
NONPAREIL. NTS. King of soft-shell 
almonds in all districts. Heavy and regular 
bearer of large, long and narrow paper- 
shell nuts of good color. Long kernel fills 
the shell well, possesses excellent flavor.

PEERLESS. NT6. Extremely heavy bearer of 
high-quality, hardshelled nuts. Money- 
maker. Yields heaviest in the Sacramento 
Valley.

is equal to Drake’s Seedling in bearing 
qualities, but grows much larger. Nuts are 
medium in size, hard shelled and highly de- 
sirable for the candy trade. An excellent 
pollenizer for the paper shell varieties.

ENGLISH 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.

CONCORD. NT41. Standard variety, grown chiefly in Contra 
Costa County. Nuts are large, round and soft shelled. Rich, well 
flavored, large kernels. Makes a sturdy, spreading tree. 
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.

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.
