Rhododendron 
Rhododendron carolinianum (Carolina 
Rhododendron). 4-6 ft. Bright pink 
flowers in May and June and is one of the 
best for planting in open places. All 
Rhododendrons do best in half-shade and 
in an acid soil. Where the natural acid 
condition is lacking, we supply, at a small 
additional charge of 10 cents per plant, a 
mixture that gives to each plant the re¬ 
quired acidity.
