(Price Includes Packing) 
These are first-class plants, just the same as we 
grow on for ourselves. 
The sooner you get these plants after January 1, 
and pot them in 2 l / 2 or 3 inch pots the larger and 
better plants you will have for forcing for the 1937- 
38 season. When the spring weather settles you 
can bed them out or shift to larger pots as you 
prefer. 
It is a mistake to wait until late May before you 
get these small Azaleas. They do not make as good 
a growth when handled late. In potting or bedding 
use 2 /i peat moss and l /s potting soil. 
Think About This: 
We draw your attention to the value of our 3 
and 4 inch pot Azaleas for growing on into heavy 
5 and 6 inch pot size Azaleas. They will make it 
in one season at a good profit to you. 
If you want our 3 and 4 inch pot Azaleas for 
growing on instead of for forcing tell us so in order¬ 
ing and we can often give you a grade of plant with 
less flower buds but heavier growth. 
SUGGESTIONS IN ORDERING 
We recommend that 60% of your order consist 
of Hinodigeri. It is the best seller due to its bright, 
cerise-red color. The balance of your order may 
well consist of light colors. We recommend that 
40 to 50% of your order consist of Azaleas in the 
3 inch pot size, 30 to 40% in 4 inch pot size and 
10 to 20 % in 5 and 6 inch pot size. 
□ p 
We find that many new customers hesitate g 
g in ordering 3 inch pot Azaleas. They seem to § 
§ think that they will be too small to make a B 
□ showing. We assure you that this is not so. g 
g Old customers always order heavily on threes g 
g and repeat orders from new customers (to whom B 
B we include a sample three with their first order B 
□ of larger sizes) also run heavy on threes, so that g 
g we have been sold out on this size ten days be- g 
§ fore Easter. This year we have again increased B 
□ production of threes and hope to have enough g 
g for both Easter and Mothers’ Day. § 
We, therefore, recommend that you force § 
B as many fives and sixes as you can sell at a B 
B price which will return you the right profit on g 
g the extra amount of bench space they need in g 
B forcing, but make the big play on threes and g 
□ fours. These smaller sizes are just about in line B 
g with the size of most of today’s retail buyers’ g 
g pocketbooks. The smart retailer always has g 
B something to fit the modest buyer’s purse. B 
B Never let them leave your place humiliated or g 
g embarrassed. They’ll “knock” you all over the g 
§ neighborhood. h
