fiaray Garden Uarieties. 
♦A )[ OSTLY low growing shrubs of the same family as the Rhododendron 
(y and equally attractive in their own way. Unlike the Rhododendron they 
* i, are mostly deciduous. Azaleas thrive in ordinary garden soil and are 
especially attractive when planted in groups, either by themselves or as the 
foreground for groups of Rhododendrons. Either as a garden shrub or for 
naturalizing in picturesque woodland landscapes, we have no material more useful. 
The flowers are borne in clusters and quite envelop the plants with their masses 
of striking colors. The range of color is very great, from the richest crimson 
to pure white, brilliant yellow and clear pink, in fact, few classes of plants give a 
greater range of color. Azaleas transplant with but little set-back, newly set out 
plants blooming with nearly the same perfection as well established plants. This 
characteristic makes it possible to use these Azaleas freely for special effects remov- 
ing them after the blooming season is over to a less conspicuous place in the garden. 
AZALEA SINENSIS (Mollis or Chinese Azalea). Very bushy in habit of growth; 
blooming with greatest profusion even when quite small. Flowering before the 
leaves appear, the effect of a planting, where the various colors, yellow, salmon 
red, orange and white, are blended, is most striking. These Azaleas are of the 
easiest culture and succeed well when given a sunny exposure. Desirable for 
naturalizing wherever our native Azalea (Nudiflorti) will thrive, as well as for 
more garden-like and lawn effects.
