Rhododendrons and Their Uses. 



That the Rhododendrons Are the most popular of all flowering 

 shrubs is proven by the large and increasing demand for them. 



The beauty and variety of their large blossoms, and their 

 evergreen foliage, make a bed of these plants an attractive 

 feature on any country place, or other ornamental grounds. 



For growing in large masses to serve as screens or planted 

 as borders to drives or walks, or on the edge as a foreground of 

 native woods, these plants are unequaled.

RHODODENDKON MAXIMUM, the native species— indigenous 

 to the Eastern States, from the South to Northern New England — 

 is now being largely used for mass planting. The plants are 

 perfectly hardy, require but little preparation of soil, and will 

 grow and bloom well in either sunny or shaded situation'^, an 

 advantage possessed by no other of the finer flowering really 

 hardy shrubs. 



" The Rhododendrons are beautiful, in full bloom now."
