shade and dislike “wet feet.” We will give 
you full instructions for planting and

Rosedale _ Rhododendrons are grown under 
ideal conditions in a soil made slightly acid by 
decaying pine needles. They are grown in the 
shade of big pines which gives them Winter as 
well as Summer shade. Some protection from 
Winter sun gives them better foliage color. 
The regular transplanting which is a part of 
the handling of All Rosedale plants produces a 
root system which is incomparably better than 
that of plants without this regular transplanting. 
Rhododendrons, Laurels, Hollies and Androme- 
das are fast becoming the most popular plants for 
a wide variety of landscape effects. The use of 
these plants is exceeded by no other type and is 
truly the modern type of planting for 1940. We 
highly recommend their greater use and believe 
our stock will give you the finest effects.
