Grown in the Carolina. Mo\intains 
Hardy American Azaleas and 
the Rhodora 
The American Azaleas are among the choicest of all orna- 
mentals, whether exotic or native, and were but rarely seen 
in cultivation before deing disseminated by Highlands Nur- 
sery. 
They are seen at their best when planted in large masses 
and in properly prepared beds, and they richly repay any 
unusual care given them. Like most ericaceous plants, they 
love deep, moist, well-drained soil, and these showy native 
species are particularly adapted to planting in shrub borders 
and with Rhododendrons, their brilliant blossoms being set 
off by a background of dark foliage. Azaleas can be success- 
fully grown almost anywhere, following same instructions 
given for Rhododendrons. The complete hardiness of all the 
species we offer is unquestionable. No American shrubs equal 
the native Azaleas, particularly A. lulea, for woodland and 
hillside plantings. 
Our cold Carolina mountains have added no more beautiful 
plants to gardens than these American Azaleas, not even ex- 
cepting the magnificent broad-leaved evergreen Rhododen- 
drons of world-wide fame.
