KURUME AZALEA, FLAME 
Hjort^s Kurume Azaleas 
The Kurunies, natives of Japan, fully one thousand miles 
farther north tlian the native habitat of the Indica varieties, 
are by far the hardiest Azaleas, and in the Lower South have 
stood perfectly the freezes which damaged more tender kinds. 
The Kurume Azaleas, contrary to popular belief, are not all 
dwarf growers. There are medium and tall kinds, and the 
widest assortment of color. We have developed a large stock 
of these dependable Azaleas, and our prices are lower than 
these plants can usually be bought for, while the quality is 
the best. Our plants, from smallest to largest, are shapely and 
we 
II set 
with buds.
