RHODODENDRON 

 Choice Hybrids 



We are indeed fortunate in having to offer this spring something over two thousand splendid 

 Hybrid Rhododendrons. Since it became unlawful to import such plants just a few years back, 

 the few Rhododendrons that could be obtained in this country have been held at ridiculously 

 high prices, but now we ofifer strictly first-class American-grown hybrids at prices that are 

 surely within the reach of all. 



Mixed colors, mostly light pink and dark pink, with some crimson, white, etc., at the fol- 

 lowing special prices: 15 to 18 in., $2.75; 18 to 24 in., $3.75; 2 to 3 ft., $4.75 each. 



MAXIMUM. — This is the native Rhododendron of our northern states and is superb for 

 massing in landscape planting. It is at home under the shade of trees where manj^ other 

 desirable shrubs will not thrive. For massing along wooded drives and paths of parks or 

 private estates, no other plant is so effective in producing beautiful results. For massing 

 about buildings it is also invaluable. The plants offered are stocky, well furnished, with ball 

 of earth, and of very superior quality in every way. 2 to 3 ft., $2.00; 3 to 4 ft., $3.00 each.
