HARDY EVERGREEN SHRUBS 



AZALEA 



J. T. LOVETT — Produced by Dr. W. Van 

 Fleet, from whom we purchased it in 19 10. It has 

 been fully tested and is, by far, the finest and most 

 beautiful hardy Azalea we have ever seen. The 

 flowers are produced in such great profusion as to 

 completely envelop the plant, and resemble, in size 

 and make-up, those of a fine Azalea Indica. They 

 are rich, brilliant, carmine-lake in color. The plant 

 is hardy with slight protection. The evergreen foliage 

 is rich, deep green, with metallic shadings, and the 

 leaves are much larger than those of Azalea 

 amoena. Flowers during late June and July. 

 9 to 12 in M $2.00; 12 to 15 in., $3.00 each. 



HINODEGIRI — A valuable variety from Japan. 

 It is of broad spreading habit, with beautiful ever- 

 green foliage and many fiery-red single flowers. Bushy 

 plants, 6 to 9 in., $1.25; 9 to 12 in., $2.00; 12 to 15 

 in., $3.00 each. 



KALMIA. Mountain Laurel 



LATIFOLIA — Among our native hardy ever- 

 green shrubs, the Laurel ranks supreme. While 

 beautiful the year around, with its glossy, deep 



green foliage gracefully disposed around symmetrical 

 ranches, it is during June that we find it at its 

 greatest glory. Then the dainty, rose-pink buds and 

 creamy white flowers make the entire plant a delight 

 to the eye. Bushy plants, 12 to 18 in., $1.50; 18 

 to 24 in., $2.00; 2 to 3 ft., $2.50 each. Write 

 for special quotations on carload lots. 



RHODODENDRONS. Great Laurel 



Who does not recall, with a thrill, the delight 

 that came with a view of these great natives, 

 transforming a mountain side during early June into a 

 veritable fairyland? They are equally attractive in 

 beds or borders around the home grounds, gracefully 

 clothing the spaces with wonderful foliage and large 

 clusters of truly magnificent flowers. 



RHODODENDRON MAXIMUM — The hardi- 

 est of the species and a strong grower, thriving 

 nearly everywhere in any soil. Contrary to common 

 belief, it does equally well in sun or shade, so long as 

 the soil is of a moisture-retaining character. 



We handle thousands of these plants, in connec- 

 tion with our landscape department, and invite in- 

 quiries from those interested in carload lots. In 

 small quantities we offer in the following sizes: 18 to 

 24 in.„$1.50; 2 to 3 ft., $2.50; 3 to 4 ft., $3.50 each.
