Japan. These are late flowering. Flowers are usually varie 
gated, white or pink ground with red, lilac or purple stripes, 
white base with colored margin, or purple with white varie

we can recommend planting in exposed or colder sections.

FELDYK AZALEAS 
From a famous grower in Holland. Introduced as ‘‘the 
Sweet Pea colored strain.’’ They are crosses between Mal- 
vatica and Kaempferi and Japanese Azaleas. Have large 
bright colored fiowers. Force easily, strong growers and 
very hardy. The blossoms exhibit all the delightful colors 
we most associate with Sweet Peas.

MERRITT AZALEAS 
A collection of very worthwhile Azaleas produced by the 
late Dr. E. A. Merritt of Bethesda, Maryland. Have heard 
quite a bit about these Azaleas and finally secured a com- 
plete collection of them. We think they are well worth trying 
south of Philadelphia and possibly where theregular Kurume 
varieties will grow. The colors are bright and clean. Our 
stock plants look like they would make good forcing varieties. 
We have a limited supply of most of these varieties. If 
you want some of them and will let us know which ones 
you want we will let you know what we can furnish. 
A FASCINATING HOBBY 
Growing Azaleas is a hobby which provides an ever increas- 
ing source of interest. There are so many species to be had 
and so many almost breath-taking new hybrids being pro- 
duced, that one is amazed at the magnificent display that 
we may have with only a small space of ground and a few 
of the newer plants that are now being offered. If you want 
a stimulating (and profitable) hobby that grows more inter- 
esting, beautiful and valuable every year, then grow azaleas.
