AZALEAS 



Azaleas for beauty. Their vivid colors, combined with 

 beautiful foliage, put them in a class by themselves, and when 

 massed or mixed in with your other planting, they always add 

 charm and beauty to the landscape. They reguire no special 

 attention after they are once planted. They thrive best in a 

 good garden loam, free from lime. If possible use plenty of 

 decayed leaves or peat moss about them. Remember the main 

 feeding roots of the Azaleas are on or near the surface of the 

 ground, so be careful not to hoe or spade directly near the 

 plants. If any weeds or grass appear pull it instead of using 

 a hoe or rake. Keep the surface of the ground well covered 

 with leaf mold or peat moss, this will eliminate weeds and 

 help keep the moisture up around the Azaleas and also keep 

 the soil cool; these are the three reguirements of success with 

 Azaleas and Rhododendrons. In severe "weather it is well to 

 give the plants further protection by mulching them with leaves 

 or any other coarse substance. Grow more Azaleas. 



In addition to the varieties we are offering herein we have 

 over a hundred other varieties. If interested ask about them. 



Kurume Azaleas 



A dwarf-growing evergreen type of grecrt beauty. The blossoms 

 axe exguisite and borne in great profusion. In this group we have 

 varieties that are suitable for planting in your garden or they can 

 be used in pots for winter flowering. If used as house plants, they 

 should be planted outdoors during the summer and then potted in 

 the fall, to be forced into bloom during the winter. In your garden, 

 place them so that they are sheltered from the cold north winds 

 and also protect them with a leaf-mulch during the winter.
