A terrace planting of Boxwood Rhododendron, Azalea Amoena and other evergreens at Montclair, N. J., which is exclusively 

 "Moon's stock." Such evergreen plantings as this are bright and cheerful the year round, and when in May the Rhododen- 

 drons and Azaleas are in flower the display is gorgeous. — Edmund K. Brown, Landscape Architect. 



Rhododendrons 



EXPERIENCE has proven that many Rhododendrons are hardy as far north as Boston. No 

 flowers are more gorgeous than these grand shrubs when they are all aglow with their great masses 

 of bloom. Not only are the flowers attractive, but the hea\'y, shiny green leaves enliven the 

 landscape even in Winter, 



Rhododendrons do well in most soils free from limestone, and to obtain success with them no such 

 expensive methods of preparing the ground are required as are sometimes advocated, though they willingly 

 respond to such treatment. In Summer a light mulch of cut grass retains the moisture, and in Winter a 

 heavier mulch of leaves protects the roots, and fre- 



quently a slight covering is required to shelter the 

 flowerbuds and foliage. After each flowering season 

 pick off the dead bloom. 



All our Rhododendrons are shipped with balls 

 of earth about their roots, which prevent them from 

 drying out, and insure successful growth. They are 

 well budded and will flower this year. 



Rhododendron Gatawbiense 



Rhododendron Gatawbiense. This is our 

 native variety, indigenous to the Allegheny Moun- 

 tains. Perfectly hardy and one of the best of all 

 Rhododendrons. The flowers which are produced 

 in late Spring are of a lilac-purple color.

Dwarf Rhododendrons 



These low-growing plants are splendid for use 

 where a dwarf evergreen shrub is required, and 

 well adapted for planting in the front of beds of 

 larger Rhododendrons or with Azaleas. Their 

 flowers come after other Rhododendrons have gone 

 and when little else is in bloom. On this account 

 alone they ought to be more generally planted.

 dron. Beautiful small pink flowers.
