RHODODENDRON. 



Each. 



Rhododendrons, Hardiest Hybrids. We import annu- 

 ally a large assortment of the best English-grown, large- 

 flowering, hardy sorts. These plants being grown on 

 English heathland are of hard stocky growth with abun- 

 dance of fibrous roots and well set with flower buds. They 

 are better suited to our variable climate than the soft 

 wooded and scantiiy-rooted plants grown at half the cost 

 on the low lands of Holland and usually sold here for no 

 less prices.
