Hjort’s Ku rume Azaleas 
The Kurumes, natives of Japan, fully one thousand miles farther north than 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 well set with buds.
