er 5. FLOUERIG and ORNAMENTAL SHRUB 

ee) - Planting Aids. Shrubs like any good fertile garden soil. Acid (sour) soil will not give the best 
a results, but most types do fairly well in it. Azaleas and Blue Hydrangeas must have an acid 
| (sour) soil and like plenty of humus. Plant to the depth they have been grown. You can see the 
soil line on the plants. Spread the roots well and tamp scil around them. Water well. Never 
remove the burlap from balled and bur- 
lapped plants. Plant “as is,” cutting only 
top strings after setting. Don’t over-water, 
as most plants don’t like ‘wet feet’ any 
nore than humans. 























CHINESE FLAME AZALEA 
3 to 4 ft. By far the most successful of all Azaleas 
in the North. Large, showy flowers precede th 
leaves in the spring and make a never-to-be-forgotten 
picture with their innumerable shades covering a 
broad range from light yellow to deep flame-red. 
(Not available in named colors.) As Azaleas like a 
somewhat acid soil, a half-and-half mixture of Cole’s 
Acid Peat (see back cover) and soil makes an excel- 
lent medium in which to plant them. They are very 
hardy and will usually do best planted in a partially 
shaded location.

BLUE MIST (Caryopieris) 
Another lovely new introduction. This is an ex- 
tremely hardy form of a beautiful southern favorite. 
It is a real contribution to the meager list of sum- 
mer and fall flowering shrubs, being covered from 
August to frost with clusters of powdery blue, 
fringed ‘lowers. Will grow to 2 or 2% feet tall in a 
perfectly rounded mound. In bloom, it gives the 
effect of a sparkling amethyst set in a silvery green 
setting. Not too particular as to soil, but does like 
plenty of fertility. For spring planting only. $1.50 
each; $4.00 for 3.
