Likes a shady place, and in Nebraska, and from here- 
north it should have'a heavy mulch for winter pro- 
tection. It cannot stand lower than Zero without pro- 
tection. In soil which contains a slight amount of 
alkali the flowers are pink, but as soon as the soil is 
acidized in any way, the blossoms will be pretty sky- 
blue. Adding about 1 tablespoonful of Aluminum Sul- 
phate (from the drug store) to the soil at planting 
time, will produce the nice blue color. Any soil in a 
shady location, with plenty of moisture, and leaf-mold 
in the soil to contain natural acid, will produce the 
blue color without further aid. 2-year-old nice shrubs, 
the strongest on the market this year, $1.25 each
