FRUITLAND NURSERIES, being at the northern limit 
where Indica Azaleas may be grown out of doors success¬ 
fully, makes our plants much more hardy than the rapid 
grown Azaleas from the coast and Gulf. We quote a let¬ 
ter from one of our customers in northern Louisiana: 
“I have found Azaleas from your place to be the only 
ones to have come through the freeze uninjured. Please 
quote me on 100 Iveryana.” 
These beautiful shrubs are perfectly hardy in the open 
ground in the South, and by carefully selecting varieties a 
continuous supply of blooms may be had from January to 
May. Planted in masses of solid or w r ell-contrasting colors, 
a pleasing effect is secured. 
To get the best results, Azaleas should be planted in a 
slightly shaded location, and particular attention should 
be given to protecting them from the hot afternoon sun. 
The soil should contain an abundance of leaf-mold, peat, 
and sand, and should be well drained. Azaleas will not 
succeed in limestone soil. Mulching with decayed leaves, 
preferably those of hardwood trees, is a distinct advantage. 
If the plants are grown in pots they should be repotted 
after flowering and before the new growth begins; keep 
the plants sheltered for a few days and then plunge the 
pots into the open ground in a shady situation.

FRUITLAND NURSERIES’ AZALEAS are more compact, 
giving you more flowers, making them ideal for pot culture. 
Native host plants and a lack of water will subject 
Azaleas to attacks of red spider and lace fly. These insects 
usually hatch in May, and the plant should be sprayed with 
Black-Leaf 40 at the rate of 3 teaspoonfuls to 1 gallon 
water, and 2 to 3 teaspoonfuls of soapflakes to each gallon 
to act as a spreader. If the plants are seriously infested, 
spray at intervals of ten days, but usually a spraying in 
May and again in September will control the pests. Be 
sure that the underside of the leaf is thoroughly wet with 
the material. Immediately after new growth begins in 
spring, a few leaves will have “apples” on them; these 
cause no material damage, but should be picked off. 
Peat is a splendid mulch for Azalea-beds, as it retains 
the moisture. No cultivation is required, for the roots are 
very near the surface of the soil. 
We offer several thousand Indica Azaleas in about 50 
varieties, and in the sizes here indicated.
