Unknown Springdale orchard was offered for sale in 1906 by the owner Mr W. T. Mason and it was described as consisting of 15 acres, 9 of which were cleared and 7 ½ planted with mixed trees in full bearing. A permanent stream was noted as running through the property. In 1911, Springdale orchard in Kalamunda was owned by R.S. Sampson. Owners would frequently lease portions of their land to others and Chinese gardeners were not uncommon in Kalamunda.
