 Gable^s Hardy Azaleas 



These hybrids have been made in the effort to originate a 

 hardier strain of the Japanese type of Azalea in better form and 

 color than has heretofore been available in hardy vorietie*. 



As to hardiness: these varieties will overage hardier than 

 Hinodegiri and Amoena and ,much hardier than the other 

 Kurumes. All have lived and flowered in the open field where 

 they have withstood temperatures of twenty below zero and 

 more in the past few winters with only negligible injury to 

 a few. Most of them were uninjured.

ARNOLDIANA AZALEAS 



In 1914, the late Jackson Dawson, then superintendent of the 

 Arnold Arboretum, at Boston, Mass., created a splendid new 

 type of hardy Azalea by crossing Azalea Kaempferi and Azalea 

 Amcena. Of the seedlings thus produced a considerable 

 number of them were grown at Boston from their infancy until 

 flowering age, when the following ones of unusual beauty 

 and vigor of growth were selected.

ALUMINUM SULPHATE 



Azaleas, Rhododendrons, Blueberries, Cornus Florida, Heath- 

 er, Kalmia and many other plants require an acid soil. Acid- 

 forniinq organic matter, such as well rotted oak leaves helps 

 to increase acidify. Aluminum Sulfate is a good chemical for 

 increasing soil acidity by using V4 to V2 pound per square 

 yard. Also used for turning hydrangeas blue. 



10 lbs., $1.25; 50 lbs., $4.00; 100 lbs., $6.00.
