AZALEAS & LIVE OAK TREES 
Of all ornamental plants, none deserve more attention THAN AZALEAS, which are without a doubt the 
most beautiful flowering shrubs we have IN THE SOUTH. They are perfectly hardy, and by planting in masses 
a pleasing effect is secured. 
We have done considerable experimenting, at a cost of SEVERAL THOUSAND DOLLARS, with the DIFFERENT VARIETIES of Azaleas, 
and have practically discontinued growing ANY VARIETY EXCEPT the AZALEA INDICA FORMOSA. We have given special atten- 
tion TO GROWING THIS VARIETY and offer an IMPROVED TYPE, much superior to those OFFERED AS THIS variety by other 
Our type has NO SUPERIOR. 
VALUABLE FOR LANDSCAPING 
Today no landscape planting in the coastal region, whether for the small 
cottage, large estate, park, or public building, is complete without AZALEAS 
—a single specimen, group or mass, nothing adds more color to the land- 
scape at their blooming period, or without flowers, they are a most attrac- 
tive, low-growing evergreen broadleaf shrub.

FORMOSA Azalea indica formosana 
Evergreen Shrub. Ter. 1 and 2. 12 ft. spread. Medium size, dark green 
foliage. Large flowers of rosy color borne in masses which cover the entire 
bush in early spring. Will grow in the common soil of the garden, but prefer 
well-rotted mulch and manure worked into the natural 
soil. The most satisfactory variety for outdoor culture in the Gulf Coast. 
We are listing here our own type of the Formosa, which from experience, 
we have found to do better in the Gulf Coast Territory. We recommend this 
particular type above all others.

When orders are 
SS a filled for Live Oak 
Trees from our Nur- 
series, We always rec- 
ommend that the prun- 
ing be left to our judg- 
ment and in this way 
we prune each tree ac- 
cording to the amount 
and manner it should 
be for developing a 
decided straight trunk 
and horizontal branch- 
ing, leaving no forks. 
The advantage of 
the proper training of 
trees in this manner, 
was noticed by the 
Landscape Architects 
and Engineers who 
made up plans and 
supervised plantings of 
Trees in Parks, along 
Streets and Highways; 
and now it is one of 
y their requirements of all

plied.

THE AZALEA 
FAMILY 
A member of the Heath 
family, and very closely 
related to the Rhododen- 
dron, Azaleas are un- 
questionably the most 
beautiful of all flowering 
shrubs. | Many _ varieties 
are grown only in Green- 
houses, but more hardy 
cultivated varieties, origi- 
nating in the hilly re- 
gions of Asia Minor are 
perfectly hardy when 
planted outdoors along 
the Southern Atlantic 
seaboard and Gulf Coast 
area, They have been 
planted and grown suc- 
cessfully as far as two 
hundred miles from the 
Coast.

soil. 
Mulching with decayed leaves, preferably those of hardwood trees, is a distinct 
advantage. Peat is also a splendid mulch for Azalea beds, as it retains the 
moisture. Applications of aluminum sulphate may be necessary when leaves be- 
come yellow, which indicates that the soil has become impregnated with lime. 
The AZALEA INDICA FORMOSA is the variety found planted so extensively 
in the noted Azalea Gardens in the Southeastern States and in more recent years, 
the prominent Gardens of Southeast Texas. They produce a mass of flowers at 
their blooming period, the flowers lasting two or three weeks. The color is a

have developed by the second year. 
Since the first planting of the fast growing type of Live Oak Trees (Quercus 
Virginiana) was made from our Nurseries, it has been difficult to keep a good sup- 
ply of uniform Trees in sufficient quantity to fill all demands. However, our 
plantings have been increased from year to year, and this Season we can offer 
a rather complete size and quantity in those listed below, all Nursery Grown, well
