leathery leaves. In late June 
and July it bears many clusters

R hododendrons love acid soil. To have succass 
with these beautiful plants it is therefore 
necessary to provide an acid condition of your 
soil. This can easily be done by the addition of 
leaf mold or humus to your soil. Certain 
chemicals can also be added. 
Our Acid Humus is a natural plant food for all 
acid loving plants such as Rhododendrons, 
Azaleas, Magnolias, Blueberries, Strawberries and 
Evergreens. One bushel of Acid Humus mixed with 
three bushels of soil makes the ideal proportion 
for planting. One pound of Acid Humus will ab¬ 
sorb one gallon of water and holds it longer than 
any known substance, thus regulating soil moisture. 
Acid Humus comes in 2 bushel bags. Each bag 
weighs about 100 pounds and will be shipped by 
freight,not prepaid. It ia more economical to 
order 2 bags at a time as freight will be about 
the same as for one bag.
