Hardy Azaleas and 
AZALEA - Hardy Varieties 
These plants, combining as they do the advantages of both 
evergreens and flowering shrubs, have deservedly won their 
way to the forefront of popularity. Once established, they 
remain for years, often for generations, becoming more beauti¬ 
ful, increasing in value, and assuming more distinct character 
with each passing season. For worth-while permanent foun¬ 
dation plantings, for generous use in the natural landscape, 
and properly placed as individual specimens, they are unsur¬ 
passed. 
Culture. Plant in full sun, in the south in light shade, in soil 
freely mixed with leaf mold and peat in about equal propor¬ 
tions. A yearly top dressing of well rotted stable manure or 
one pound of Wayside Gardens Plant Food scattered around 
each plant in the fall will help to produce abundant blooms. 
Remove faded flowers at once, do not let plants go to seed; 
never cultivate. Water freely in dry weather. 
Japonica Plants in pots, 12-15 inches, Each $0.60; Doz. $6.00 . 
Of easy culture, in fact a very vigorous grower, flame-orange 
and red flowers in great clusters in May. 
♦ Kaempferi Plants in pots, 12-15 inches, Each $0.60, Doz. $6.00 
(Torch Azalea.) One of the most popular, hardiest and most 
satisfactory of all; a vigorous grower, never failing to produce 
its orange-red flowers in May; excellent as a point of emphasis 
in the mixed shrubbery border. 
♦Mollis 
Field-grown plants with buds, 15-18 in., Each $0.80, Doz. $8.00 
Field-grown plants with buds, 18-24 in., Each $1.00, Doz. $10.00

low-growing shrubs; in innumerable shades of orange-flame, 
and yellow; bushy plants offered in mixed colors only. 
Louisa Hunnewell 
Field grown, 15-18 inches, Each $2.00, Doz. $20.00 
Derived from a cross between Azalea Mollis and Azalea 
Japonica, this new variety is hardier than either parent and is 
more beautiful and floriferous. The huge clusters of salmon- 
buff flowers completely cover the plants while they are in 
bloom. One of the showiest. 
Pontica Field grown plants, 15-18 inches, Each $0.80, Doz. $8.00 
These are also called the Hardy Ghent Azaleas; they have al¬ 
ways been popular. The orange, pink, copper, salmon and 
yellow shades of their blooms you must see to appreciate their 
wonderful beauty. The lustrous leaves when young are covered 
with silky hair, and in autumn turn to dull red and brown. 
Schlippenbachi 
Plants in pots, 10-12 inches, Each $0.60, Doz. $6.00 
(Royal Azalea.) A vigorous plant 3 to 5 feet high, with very 
large showy flowers of pale rose-pink, the upper petals lightly 
spotted with brown. 
NEW PINK BUDDLEIA, CHARMING 
A new shrub bearing throughout the late summer and autumn 
elegant long sprays covered with lovely lavender-pink blooms 
which, compared with other Buddleias introduced up to date, are 
distinctly pink. It received a Silver Medal from the Pennsylvania 
Horticultural Society. For September and October flowers we 
suggest pinching off the first flower-spikes which develop in July 
to aid in the development of side branches which will bring a 
greater abundance of flowers during the autumn months. Like 
other Buddleias, this new variety attracts a great many colorful 
butterflies—a feature which accounts for the the popular name of 
this showy, hardy shrub. Charming gives a wonderful effect in 
the garden and has exceptional value for house decoration. 
Strong flowering plants, Each $0.50, Doz. $4.00, 100 $30.00 
BUDDLEIA 
He de France Three $1.10, Doz. $3.30, 100 $20.00 
Blooms prolificly and the flowers are large; the color is a deep 
purple. A fine plant for the flower garden or shrubbery border 
or as a single specimen for the lawn. 
CULTIVATED LARGE FRUITED BLUEBERRIES 
The supreme achievement of skilled horticulturists who have 
worked for years to improve our most luscious native fruit 
The question invariably asked by those whose interest has been 
aroused is “Are these new blueberries hard to grow?’’ The answer 
instantly and truthfully given is “No; they are not in the least 
hard to grow.” In bloom they are attractive, and in fall the green 
foliage turns into beautiful shades of red and crimson. 
Blueberries are acid-soil plants. This acid condition is easily 
brought about by simple preparation of the soil—with woods soil, 
oak leaves, peat or aluminum sulphate. 
The new, named varieties of cultivated blueberries are not self- 
fertile. Consequently, a bush grown by itself will not bear fruit, 
but where six or more plants of different varieties are grown in 
close proximity, perfect fertilization of the blossoms takes place, 
and abundant crops of huge, luscious berries result. 
Consequently our blueberries are sold in units of six plants 
(mixed varieties) or in blocks of 24 plants or more (mixed va¬ 
rieties). Bach plant bears a carefully written name tag. Orders for 
■Ingle plants will positively not be accepted for reasons noted 
above. 
2-year size, $6.25 per unit of 6 plants, 24 plants or over, $0.90 
per plant. All plants are sent with ball of earth. Cultural hints 
with each order.

A most desirable border shrub about 20 inches high, of free 
and graceful habit, producing long, slender stems, drooping, 
apparently from the weight of the flowers and buds, although 
the flowers face so none of their beauty is lost. Color a rich 
golden yellow, and bloom continuously the entire season. 
LABURNUM VOSSI - Golden Chain 
Each $3.50, Doz. $35.00 
Long-clustered Golden Chain. Small tree-like shrub with green 
bark and foliage like exaggerated clover leaves. Flowers are

and are borne very profusely in late spring. Very beautiful.

LONICERA - Honeysuckle 
Syringantha Wolfi Each $0.75, Doz., $7.50

showy fragrant blooms in clusters not unlike in fragrance and 
form the Daphne Cneorum. It is of very easy culture. Does 
well in light shade or full sun, growing not much higher than 
2 to 2 y 2 feet. Excellent for in front of large shrubs or in the 
flower border and rock garden. You will much enjoy the fra¬ 
grance of this rare little bush. 
MAGNOLIA

We offer flowering plants with a lot of buds, about 3 to 5 feet 
tall. 
PYRACANTHA (Crataegus) - Firethorn 
Coccinea Lalandi Each $0.60, Doz. $6.00 
A most remarkable fruiting evergreen shrub, growing more 
than 6 feet high. Bears attractive large trusses of white flow¬ 
ers during the late spring followed by an abundance of bril¬ 
liant orange-scarlet berries which remain late into the winter. • 
It is difficult to transplant old or large plants. We therefore 
send only young stock which establishes quickly. It prefers a 
sandy soil and warm location. Strong young plants. 
VITEX - Chaste Tree 
Macrophylla Each $0.50, Doz. $5.00 
A graceful shrub with attractive spikes of lovely lavender- 
blue flowers. Blooms profusely from July until fall and grows 
more than 10 feet high unless pruned back. It is a most de¬ 
sirable summer-flowering shrub of distinctive appearance. 
Fits in well in the border and is also suitable as a lawn plant. 
Its form and foliage as well as the lilac flowers are very un¬ 
usual. Strong plants, size 15-18 inches. 
VIBURNUM - Gardenia Scented Snowball 
Burkwoodi Each $2.00, Doz. $20.00 
Improved Carlesi. Waxy pink and deliciously fragrant, the 
flowers of this new fragrant viburnum are produced in early 
spring when the leaves are unfolding. They form round, domed 
clusters, and the gardenia-like fragrance is so sweet as to 
pervade a large area. The plant grows about 4 feet high and 
5 to 6 feet in diameter. It likes a well-drained, sunny place 
with plenty of moisture throughout the season. This is a jewel 
for the garden—a real aristocrat. For the small garden, where 
there is room only for the choicest shrubs, the one viburnum 
above all others that should be grown is viburnum Burkwoodi. 
Foliage brilliant in autumn. Much stronger and healthier 
grower than Carlesi.
