ROEDING'’S QUALITY i 
NUT TREES 
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. Walnuts 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 enable 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.

WALNUTS 
Our English Walnuts are grafted 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.

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.

into bearing very early; is similar to Mayette in habit of growth.

\ Royal Walnut Seedlings 
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 wondertul 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.
