Fruitvale Nursery

The Fruitvale Nursery was listed at 3415 E. 14th St.  under the proprietorship of M. Kunihiro from 1918-1923. Iyeki then took over from 1923-1924. The nursery likely began as the Fukuzumi Bros. Nursery until bought by Tokitsu in 1910. Tokitsu and Towata ran the nursery from 1911-1918 before it became Fruitvale Nursery and Floral.
