Rhododendrons 
Experience  has  proved  that  many  Rhododendrons 
are  hardy  as  far  north  as  Boston.  In  early  sum- 
mer there  are  no  flowers  more  gorgeous  than  these 
grand  shrubs,  that  are  then  all  aglow  with  their 
great  masses  of  bloom.  But  not  only  at  this  season 
are  they  attractive,  for  the  heavy  shiny  green 
leaves  enliven  the  landscape  even  in  winter.  In 
front  of  evergreen  shelter-belts  their  glossy  foliage 
])pears  to  delightful  advantage  against  the  more  somber  hues  of  the  conifers  that  protect  them  from 
he  prevailing  winds.  In  groups  or  masses  the  varied  colors  of  the  flowers  blend  harmoniously  together, 
,nd  make  a  brilliant  ornament  wherever  seen. 
Rhododendrons  do  well  in  moist  soils  free  from  limestone,  and  to  obtain  success  from  them  no  such 
xpensive  methods  of  preparing  the  ground  are  required  as  are  sometimes  advocated,  though  they  will- 
ngly  respond  to  such  treatment.  In  summer  a  light  mulch  of  cut  grass,  retains  the  moisture,  and  in 
vinter  a  heavier  mulch  of  leaves  protects  the  roots,  and  frequently  a  slight  covering  is  required  to 
helter  the  flower-buds  and  foliage.  After  each  flowering  season  the  dead  bloom  should  be  picked  to 
>revent  seeding,  and  allow  the  energies  of  the  plant  to  develop  flower-buds  for  the  next  year. 
The  Rhododendrons  stand  without  an  equal  among  the  flowering  shrubs,  and,  to  retain  their 
upremacy,  possess  the  crowning  virtue  of  flowering  in  all  their  glory  the  same  season  as  planted.  They 
nay  be  moved  successfully  in  spring  or  early  fall. 
All  our  Rhododendrons  are  shipped  with  balls  of  earth  about  their  roots,  which  prevents  them  from 
Irying  out  and  insures  successful  growth.  They  are  well  budded  and  will  flower  this  year.
