HARDY EVERGREEN AZALEAS 
The following varieties of Azaleas (lately classified under Rhododendrons) are generally known as Japanese Azaleas, 
having originated largely in China and Japan. 
On account of the large number of varieties and many shades of colors, they rank with the very handsomest, hardy, 
flowering Evergreens. We have experimented with a very large number of varieties in our nurseries, and by rigorously 
discarding, one by one, those that were inferior, we have now a unique collection which we are growing in large quantities. 
These Evergreen Azaleas should be used extensively in groups with other hardy broad-leaved Evergreens. For rock- 
gardens they are unexcelled. For forcing or conservatory decoration they are invaluable. 
Many plant-lovers think that they are difficult of cultivation, but this is not the case, if they are planted in ordinary 
garden soil and if ordinary care is given. Plenty of leaf-mold in the soil and as a mulch is beneficial; they flourish under 
the same conditions as Rhododendrons; they do not like lime or limy soil. Most of the varieties are absolutely hardy 
and will withstand our most severe winters, but a few are less hardy and need protection. 
SPIT*Kinds marked with an asterisk (*) need special protection in our Northern States 
AZALEA amoena. Flowers are bright rosy purple and are 
©produced in a solid mass in May. The hairy foliage as¬ 
sumes a pleasing bronze tint in the fall and winter months.
