We Know You Will Like Them 

 GROWING GOOD AZALEAS 



Azaleas will grow in full sun or in shade. In the sun you 

 will have brighter colors and growth will be shorter. We 

 prefer a little shade if convenient. The small pot-grown 

 plants should be planted about ten or twelve inches apart 

 in a prepared bed consisting of about equal parts of good 

 acid soil and peat moss or rotten leaf-mold, with about 

 one-half shade. 



Azaleas like acid soil with plenty of peat moss or leaf- 

 mold in it. As a fertilizer rotten cow manure, cotton-seed 

 meal and tankage are good. Use this in early spring and 

 keep well mulched with peat moss or leaf-mold and keep 

 the plants well watered during dry weather. 



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.
