GABLES HARDY 
HYBRID AZALEAS 
A collection of new hybrids of diverse 
parentage as showy as Kurume Azaleas, but 
really hardy in Zone V. Most are deciduous 
or partly so, but two are thoroughly evergreen 
in the North. We prophesy enormous popu- 
larity for this achievement of one of our fore- 
‘most American hybridists—Mr. Joseph B. 
Gable—who has been laboring on them over 
ten years. Bloom from early May to June. 
(Each) (6) 
1 year 3 to 6 inch........... s.- $8.75 
2 year 8 to 12 inch B&B..... $1.50 7.50 
Caroline Gable—Double, pink. Startling. 
La Lumiere — Bright red. Shapely. Ever- 
green. 
Mildred Mae—Broad, dwarf. Orchid, red- 
spotted. One of the best evergreen Azaleas. 
Miriam—FEarly deep pink. Profuse. 
Old Faithful—Early, deep orchid. Large 
grower. Good bloomer. 
Those disappointed last spring will do well 
to order now. A larger stock available but still” 
larger demand.

Named Hardy Hybrids 
Here are the first named Hybrids to be 
commercially offered from cuttings. It is a 
special process which results in a well-budded 
growth, quick and full of vitality. In our 
opinion a l-year field grown plant makes as 
vigorous branched growth as a 1-year old 
graft! Also, it is own-root and should prove 
slightly hardier in the north than grafts.
