RHODODENDRON MAXIMUM 



This species of Rhododendron is rapidly becoming popular, and justly so, for it is the 

 most ornamental hardy evergreen plant in cultivation. It gives immediate and permanent 

 effect and is beautiful every season of the year. We have given the Rhododendron more 

 study and attention than has perhaps any other nursery, and we have solved the problem 

 of transplanting Rhododendron Maximum with succef . Our stock is grown in the open, 

 where it becomes full and compact, and is set well wit . buds. We have under our sole 

 control nearly 3,500 acres. We book orders by the carload, f. o. b. your station. We have 

 now booked nearly 100 cars for April delivery. Special prices on carload lots.

 Not half hardy, but only such as will stand the winter without protection. We have them 

 in all sizes and varieties. Prices on application.

TENDER, JUICY, EARLY VEGETABLES 



QUALITY in vegetables is the result of quick growth — the less time from planting to 

 table the better they are — but to assure this rapid growth and development they 

 must have an abundance of Nitrogen. " BONORA " contains 17 per cent, of this neces- 

 sary element, much more than any other fertilizer, in a perfectly soluble state, so that the 

 plants absorb and use it as soon as "BONORA" is applied. The result is an abundant 

 yield of finest quality much earlier than is possible without its use. "BONORA" is not 

 only especially strong in Nitrogen, but is a well balanced, quick acting, all around plant 

 food, and should be used on all flowers, shrubs, berries, small fruits, etc., etc. 



GREEN, VELVETY LAWNS 



Which will remain so throughout the Summer ; may be produced by the application of 

 " BONORA " now. The Nitrogen forces a quick, healthy growth of grass, while the 

 Phosphoric Acid and Potash, which it also contains, makes strong, vigorous, deep roots. 

 The fact that " BONORA " is used on the Capitol Grounds at Washington, by the Parks 

 of Greater New York, and on hundreds of the most beautiful country estates, is ample 

 proof of its efficiency as a lawn maker. Here are the names of a few upon whose country 

 homes "BONORA" is used, not only upon the lawns, but in the greenhouses and 

 conservatories as well: Hon. Jos. H. Choate, John D. Rockefeller, Jr., Hon. Cornelius 

 N. Bliss, A. G. Vanderbilt, J. P. Morgan, etc., etc. Would they buy it if it was not the best? 



You need "BONORA." Even a small package will convince you of its value.
