AZALEA 
FORMOSA Aznlca indica formosana 
We recommend and grow principally the well-known, hardy indica formosa, which 
thrives well in the open. Requires Leaf Mold or Peat Moss for mulching as the 
roots grow close to the surface. Lime conditions require prepared soil. There is 
no more beautiful flowering shrub to be had for the Gulf Coast area.
