Description

"California Horticulturist and Floral Magazine," Vol. X, No. 8 (August 1880), published by John H. Carmany & Co., San Francisco. The periodical is a general magazine for farming, landscape gardening, and related topics and has sections on "Contributed Articles"; "Correspondence"; "Editorial Department"; "Editorial Notes"; and "Pomological Notes". There is an article on the use of hedges in Pasadena. There are also advertisements. The wrappers have many tears, some missing portions, heavy creasing, soiling and staining, and other wear, while pages are dogeared and creased, so the condition is poor.
