IMPORT PRICES FOR 
RHODODENDRONS AND HARDY AZALEAS 
ORDERS MUST BE RECEIVED NOT LATER THAN MARCH I, 1903 
I publish an Illustrated Descriptive Pamphlet of Rhododendrons and Hardy Azaleas, which gives full cultural directions. Sent free to applicants 
Although I give prices according to height, such classification is delusive, for a well-grown plant 18 inches high is worth more than a 
poorly grown plant twice ns high. 1 guarantee the stock offered below to he satisfactory in every respect. The sizes of Rhododendrons are 
given in inches, but the plants will be larger and smaller than the sizes quoted, according to the habit of growth of the variety. 
I notice that one of my competitors pretends to meet my prices on Rhododendrons by describing them in three or four different qualities, 
and offering his poorest quality at about my prices, and his best quality at an advance of 100 per cent. I have only one quality to offer, and 
that is the best in the world, and incomparably better than can be obtained from any other American dealer, whether grower or importer. 
I am perhaps the largest importer of Rhododendrons in this country, and can easily satisfy intending buyers that my stock is the best and 
my prices are the lowest. Scores of the leading parks and amateurs have been supplied with this stock, and their names will be furnished 
on application.
