OUR GREENHOUSE DEPARTMENT CONSISTS OF 
APPROXIMATELY 2 50,000 SQUARE FEET OF GLASS 
Azaleas for Growing-On 
We believe we are the largest growers of Azaleas in the world, 
and during the past years have been gratified to see the great increase 
there has been in the public’s liking and acceptance of these plants, 
flowering, as they do, from Christmas on to Mother’s Day, according 
to the varieties selected. 
For those who can grow on their own Azaleas for one summer, 
potting them up as early as they wish, we have splendid, bushy, 
young stock in the following varieties suitable for this purpose.
