Quercus 
(Oak) 
Quercus acuta. (Japanese Evergreen Oak). Without 
doubt this is the most beautiful evergreen Oak ever 
introduced. The tree is of medium growth; bark 
very Binooth; leaves oblong, of a bright, glossy 
green; growth very symmetrical and compact. A 
specimen of this Oak in our grounds is the admira¬ 
tion of all who see it. Seems to do well in almost 
any soil; needs comparatively little care, but will 
repay any attention given.

Note — As all evergreen Oaks are difficult t ©trans¬ 
plant, they must be defoliated and severely cut back 
before being set out. Keep the trees well mulched 
until thoroughly established. 
Rhododendron 
Rhododendrons by some are considered difficult to 
grow. This erroneous idea is due to lack of knowl¬ 
edge concerning these handsome plants. The Rho¬ 
dodendrons naturally love a shady situation, es¬ 
pecially where they are protected from the after¬ 
noon sun. As Rhododendrons are surface feeders 
it is very necessary that the beds be properly pre¬ 
pared. Excavate to a depth of 2 or more feet; fill 
in with a mixture of leaf mold, loam or peat, and 
sand so as to give good drainage. The above 
should be thoroughly rotted and mixed. A liberal 
amount of well-rotted manure can also be used with 
the above mixture, but never use heating manures. 
Keep the plants well mulched with leaves and 
water during periods of drought. If these direc¬ 
tions are carried out Rhododendrons will give most 
satisfactory results.
