Azalea-Flowered Godetias 
Wonderful Flowers That Rival the Loveliest Potted Azaleas 
Godetias are unsurpassed for the brilliant 
effect they produce in beds and borders. The 
new Dwarf Azalea-Flowered varieties are also 
highly recommended for pot culture. They 
make compact bushes about a foot high, and the 
big beautiful blossoms are produced in such 
profusion as to just about hide the plant. It 
is surely a revelation, and you will be sur- 
prised and delighted. They are especially rec- 
ommended for shady locations where many 
other flowers will not bloom. We have the 
four following varieties to offer:
