Native Azaleas, Broad-Leaved Evergreens 
For Your Garden 
Fine large clumps, dug and shipped with balls of earth, all plants heavily budded, ready for planting in your garden—and I am 
ready to fill your order for a few or for a car-load. Planted early in the Spring, these will produce wonderful results in June. 
Among our native azaleas I have some splendid plants of Lutea, Nudiflora, Arborescens and Viscosa of stock unequalled as to 
quality and quantity. 
Resolve Now to Enjoy Them Next June 
Are you among the favored few whose grounds have room for the charming children of the woods 
where Laurel, Andromeda and Rhododendron shrubs provide shelter for their little sisters, the wild 
Orchids, Wake Robbins and Hepaticas? Then you are happy indeed for among all the plants available to 
American gardens none are more interesting or have greater or more enduring charm 
and beauty than our own native American flowering evergreen shrubs and wild flowers. 
For those who wish to execute large plantings I offer collected Kalmias and Rho¬ 
dodendrons. I have them available in car-load lots at very reasonable prices. I will 
pack them so that they will arrive in perfect condition and will help you by telling you 
all the details of their planting. I will assist you in putting your ideas into practice 
and will help you with the ideas born of our fifty years specialization in wild flowers.

'Paul’s Scarlet Cumber 
THE DINGEE & CONARD CO. 
Box 272, West Grove, Pa. 
F OR profusion of bloom, for long- 
continued and brilliant display and 
for the beauty of each individual bud 
and flower, no climbing rose grown ex¬ 
cels Paul’s Scarlet. 
The formal report of the president of 
the exhibit in Paris last year stated that 
“Pauls Scarlet stood out by far the best 
among the climbers and attracted the 
public probably more than any other rose." 
Leading rose growers regard it as far 
superior to the Climbing American 
Beauty or any climbing rose of its color. 
It is a vivid scarlet, slightly crimson, 
a strong grower with full foliage, free 
from mildew, diseases and insects. Cut¬ 
ting back turns it into a beautiful bush 
rose.

Dwarf Fruit Trees

PEACH 
Haven’t you ever visited a friend’s garden when the 
fruit was hanging ripe, and felt a hankering to grow on 
your own grounds part of the fruit needed for your 
family use ? 
Perhaps you put off planting be¬ 
cause it seemed a long time from 
planting till harvest? 
Dwarf Fruit Trees hasten the 
harvest time. Many of them, like 
illustration, fruit one or two years 
after planting. 
Has limited space discouraged you 
from planting your own trees? 
Dwarf Fruit Trees recjuire less room, 
and open the way for the suburban dwell¬ 
er to realize the pleasure and satisfac¬ 
tion of harvesting fresh fruit for table 
use. 
Even on the smaller home grounds, 
fruit production may compete to a satisfactory extent with the 
larger estates which invariably give fruit planting an important 
place in the landscape plans. 
Nine dwarf trees occupy the space of four standard trees, and 
produce as much fruit.
