Young Native Aristocrats 
COLLECTED AZALEAS , 
RHODODENDRON, LAUREL 
It has long been known that this type of shrub is easily and safely 
transplanted without being previously nursery grown. However, to 
get nicely shaped specimens is a different matter, and large shapeless, 
loose, ragged rhododendrons are difficult to use in the landscapes. We 
offer:—1. A small grade that can easily be shaped by pruning; 2. A 
heavier grade already fairly shapely and bushy; 3. Heavy, bushy clumps. 
SIZE 1: As small as ships safely.

These fine native shrubs are easily 
transplanted from the wild and take 
readily to cultivation. This special 
“Young Aristocrat” grade measures 12 
to 15 inches with a small ball, weighing 
one or two pounds only. This stock is 
not to be compared for a minute with 
ordinary collected Diants, nulled out by 
the roots and bundled together. It is on 
the contrary all carefully dug, the great¬ 
est pains beiiiir taker, to preserve the 
roots. Carefully packed and shipped by 
express, it is easily planted and young 
enough to make a quick start. Shipped 
from North Carolina, yet express runs 
only about 6c each anywhere east of 
Iowa (in 100 lots). 
SIZE 2: As small as is shapely.

These might be called “Junior Speci¬ 
mens.” Each plant has 4 to 6 main 
stems coming from the ground, besides 
side-branches. The ball weighs about 5 
pounds per plant, and each ball is indi¬ 
vidually burlapped. They are 2 to 3 
years older than Size 1. Express runs 
about 20 cents per plant. You can ex¬ 
pect some blooms the year after planting 
—a few now!
