FORCING AZALEAS 
For Greenhouse culture 
AZALEA RUTH ER FOR DIANA —Our own creation, a new¬ 
comer among the Azaleas that has caused a sensation. 
Awarded several gold medals and prizes as a distinct 
addition to the Azaleas family. 
Can be forced to bloom for Christmas, Valentine’s Day, 
Easter and Mother’s Day. 
Brilliant new colors and shades varying from snow- 
white to lavendar and crimson. Profuse masses of 
blooms completely hide the foliage. The flowers are 
borne in trusses (similar to the rhododendron) and 
last much longer than other varieties. 
Azalea Rutherfordiana grows easily, and is vigorous in 
character. 
OTHER AZALEAS include the well known Belgian In- 
dicas, and Kurume in all popular varieties. 
Space will not permit of a complete listing, yet we call 
your attention to our fine Hydrangeas for forcing; Arau- 
carcia, Pandanas, Dracaena, Ferns, Ivies and a long list 
of other greenhouse items. Correspondence invited.

HEART CYPRESS TUBS 
For many years we have maintained a department de¬ 
voted entirely to the manufacture of high-grade “Heart 
Cypress Tubs.” 
The natural oil present in cypress wood prevents warp¬ 
ing, shrinking or swelling. We consider it best for plant 
tubs. 
Good plant tubs are an economy. 
Standard designs, in round or square tubs, painted an 
agreeable, harmonious green. 
If you need tubs made to a special design, we will 
gladly quote. 
Send for our folder “Heart Cypress Tubs.” 
Roses and Perennials are fully de¬ 
scribed and illustrated in another 
catalogue. Send for your copy. 
At your suggestion, we will gladly 
forward our printed matter to an in¬ 
terested friend or neighbor.
