THE EXQUISITE 
(Azalea vaseyi) 
Introduced to Horticulture in 1885 by 
Harlan P. Kelsey, this choicest of native 
plants was widely heralded as an impor¬ 
tant addition to our garden flora. The 
years have added to its popularity, until 
today it is acknowledged the peer of our 
finest ornamentals. 
The delicate waxy flowers appear be¬ 
fore the leaves in early spring, giving a 
lavish display of breath-taking enchant¬ 
ment in shades of light or deep pink. A 
specialty at Kelsey-Highlands Nursery, 
all plants are well budded and will bloom 
the first season. 
Extra heavy specimens from 3 to 6 feet 
in height are priced individually at from 
$8.00 to $20.00 each.

In over half a century devoted to the discovery, 
growing and dissemination of desirable ornamen¬ 
tals, Harlan P. Kelsey has introduced some of 
America’s loveliest garden treasures. One of the 
most famous of these is the magnificent Carolina 
Hemlock (Tsuga caroliniana) of which the late 
Prof. Sargent wrote: “The handsomest conifer we 
can grow in New England.” This is pictured in 
color on the front cover, and further described in 
our complete catalog. At Kelsey-Highlands Nurs¬ 
ery you will find the largest supply of superb 
nursery-grown specimens. Other notable Harlan 
P. Kelsey introductions are found in our catalog.
