EXPLANATION OF HARDINESS RATINGS 
As this list goes all over the U. S. A. and also abroad, 
we believe it a good idea to indicate hardiness. This has 
been done by giving after the name of each item a 
number in ( ) indicating the one up to which it is 
considered hardy. 
Our authority through Zone 7 is Rehder’s Handbook. 
For Zones 8 to 10 we have been guided by Pacific Coast 
experience and have subdivided Zone 9 so that 
(9) indicates probably safe to 20° (Sacramento and 
San Joaquin Valleys, etc.). 
(9%) indicates probably safe to 25° or 26° (San 
Francisco Bay Region, etc.). 
(10) indicates will stand only very light frost. 
To find the zone you are in refer to the map in center 
pages of this book, which we use by the courtesy of Ar- 
nold Arboretum and McGraw Hill Book Co. 
We hope this will be helpful to nurserymen all over 
the country. Please understand that ratings show our 
honest opinion, but we disclaim all responsibility for 
their correctness. 
ABBREVIATIONS 
Letters A, B, C, D, E, etc., after variety names indicate 
the sizes available. 
POT GROWN AND GALLON CAN STOCK 
We find that many customers, especially those at a 
distance, prefer to have us remove soil and ship “bare 
roots” packed in moss. If you order any of this class of 
material please be sure to say whether you want it 
packed with or without soil on the roots. 
We have enlarged our facilities for the production of 
quality gallon can stock and from now on we will be 
able to offer more high class ornamentals in gallon cans. 
We will continue growing 4 in. pot stock for field plant- 
ing, and for shipping orders where weight is a factor. 
When available, we will also offer 2% and 3 in. pot 
stock as lining out material, but have none to offer this 
season. 
LOCATION 
Office and Sales Yard located on Oakland-San Jose 
Highway at Coyote Creek Bridge, about one mile north 
of San Jose City Limits. Other growing grounds are 
within a mile or two of the office. Visiting nurserymen 
are welcome at all times.
