PLANTS FOR FORCING. 



AZALEAS FOR EASTER. 



On account of Easter this year coming so very late (April 23) a season 

 of the year when our regular spring shipmends demand our full attention, 

 we have decided not to carry a supply of Azaleas until then, but to clo»e 

 out our entire stock as quickly as possible, therefore customers who us- 

 ually prdcure th>ir supplies late in the spring will do well to cover their 

 needs at once. The principal sorts now in stock are Mme. Van der Cruyssen 

 and Bernhardt Andreas Alba the two best late flowering sorts of their 

 color. These two varieties can be furnished in any proportion desired, but 

 the selection of other varieties must be left to us. 



We will still supply early orders at import prir^es. 



12 to 14-in. crowns $ 6 00 per doz.; f 45.00 per 100 



14 to 16-in. crowns 7.00 per doz.; 55 00 per 100 



^6 to l8-in. crowns „.„^..^,.rrT.^T^.-„^.. ^ 12.00 per doz.; 100.00 per 100 



DEUTZIAS FOR FORCING. 



Strong two-year-old field grown plants suitable for 6-in. pots. 



Gracilis Pern oz., $0.75; per 100, $6.00 



Gracilis Rosea Perdoz., l.Oi ; per 100, 8.00 



Gracilis L«moinei Perdoz., 1.00; per 100, 8.00 



Ay.AT.ICA MOLLIS. 



For early and late forcing Azalea Mollis is rapidly gaining favor; easily 

 forced at a minimum cost for heat and labor, they are profitable stock for 

 the retailer tu handle. We are sujplying at present an unusually fine 

 grade of plants. 15 to 18 inches higb, and covered with flower buds, $4.60 

 per doz.; $33.00 per 100. 



FORCING LILACS. 



A fine lot of pot grown plants, well set with buds and in prime condition 

 for forc^g, $6.00 per doz.; $45 OJ per 100. 



RHODODENDRONS FOR FORCING. 



These are being used more extensively every season, and this year, 

 witte Easter at such a very late date, should prove especially acceptable, 

 as they can be retarded much easier than Azaleas, and at the same time 

 may be flowered at just the right moment at a minimum cost. We are 

 carrying an extra large stock of bushy well shaped plants. 16 to 18 inches 

 high, covered with buds $9 00 per doz.; $70.00 per 100. Larger plants. 20 to 

 24 inches high, fine specimens, $11.00 per doz.; $90.00 per 100.
