HARDY RHODODENDRONS 
HARDY HYBRID RHODODENDRONS 
It is almost impossible to describe the glory of a flowering mass of Rhododendrons, and even when 
the flowers are gone, the plants, with their multitude of rich, glossy, evergreen leaves, have a unique 
beauty at all seasons of the year— in summer forming a deep, cool background for smaller plants and 
flowers planted in front of them, and in winter retaining their beautiful foliage as a memory of the 
inmmer past and a promise of the summer time to come again. 
No shrub in the whole category lends itself so well to all conditions; and it is equally satisfactory 
to those who are able to have but one plant, and those whose estates admit of planting in masses by 
car-load lots. As a small specimen on the lawn no plant used for this purpose is more beautiful; and 
planted in masses, especially when backed by the dark green foliage of conifers, they are distinctly rich 
and effective. . , . , -j t»« • j 
We especially recommend Rhododendrons, either Maximum or the many hybrids of Maximum and 
Catawbiense, for naturalizing in woods, where they soon make themselves at home, for the planting- 
along drives and for the forming of backgrounds of hardy perennial borders. Many of the beautiful 
and hardy Japan lilies grow and thrive well beneath the foliage of the Rhododendron, and send up 
their long spikes of handsome flowers almost immediately after the Rhododendrons have shed their 
blooms All sorts of ferns and almost all hardy perennial plants thrive finely among Rhododendrons 
One of our special features is the planting of borders, masses, etc., with Rhododendrons and hardy 
herbaceous perennials, and will be pleased to submit plans, specifications and prices for this work upon 
application; or to those who contemplate doing their own planting we will send estimates for Rhodo- 
dendrons in large quantities, up to car-load lots. . , . r c u i i . 
The following list of Hardy Hybrid Rhododendrons is composed of the finest of these royal plants, 
and each one is the finest specimen of its color to be obtained.
