California Nursery Company

The article reads like an advertisement for a local business; notability is not obvious. Ecoleetage (talk) 08:15, 14 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep. The claim "The California Nursery Co. ultimately became the largest firm of its kind west of the Rockies." seems to establish notability. Note that the older version of the company may be more notable than its present-day mail-order-only version. --Eastmain (talk) 17:46, 14 June 2008 (UTC)

 * Keep Very few California companies have been in continuous operation since 1865. This (see page 8), this, and this came up in just the first page of google hits. I'm sure many more, and many print sources, will be easily found. The article needs expansion, not deletion.-- Fabrictramp |  talk to me  18:02, 14 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep Well known company, if not much in the news today as it has been in the past. --Blechnic (talk) 23:08, 15 June 2008 (UTC)
