GENERAL CULTURE HINTS 
Camellias and Azaleas thrive under the same con- 
ditions and culture. Keep them uniformly moist at 
al} times. Do not drown them nor let them dry out 
completely. Success or failure will depend on the 
soil that you plant them in. Be liberal with good 
soil and fertilizer. Keep Scale and Red Spider un- 
der control at all times. Prune to Keep the plants 
shapely. This should be done in Spring and Sum- 
mer, not later than August 1st. 
They will thrive either in partial shade or full 
sun. However, those planted in full sun must be 
kept mulched and properly watered. Kurume 
Azaleas will bloom much more profusely in dense 
shade than the Indica Azaleas. Azaleas and Ca- 
mellias will bloom more profusely if planted in full 
sun. However, the flowers will fade and will not 
last as long as those planted in partial shade. 
Then, too, those in full sun will sometimes be in- 
jured by frost, while those in partial shade will 
have protection from the cold. 
In conclusion, we urge you to plant Camellias 
and Azaleas. They are easy to grow, their pro- 
fusion of bloom in the Winter and Spring is a 
constant joy to those who have these most popular 
Southern shrubs.
