For Year Round Beauty— 

 Hardy Rhododendrons 



Were you to ask us which shrub we would recommend as most desirable for every 

 home garden or estate grounds, our answer would be Rhododendrons! their broad 

 leaves are attractive the year around. Their flowers are superb, in a wide range of 

 colors. They do equally well in sun or shade and any soil can easily be put in con- 

 dition to cause them to thrive. 



Here Are Four Beautiful Sorts in 

 Representative Range of Colors 



From over 30 distinctly beautiful kinds we have selected four that will give you a true idea of the 

 value of these rare new hybrids. The plants we offer come with a liberal setting of flower buds — 

 ready to bloom next May. All four varieties are distinct in both foliage and flowers.
