CAMELLIAS—AZALEAS AND RHODODENDRONS 
In the formation of beautiful garden effects, these 
,groups of plants should, as far as possible, be used to- 
gether and with a generous hand. With them may also be 
used a few other ericaceous plants such as Andromeda Ja- 
ponica and Floribunda, Kalmia Latifolia, the different va- 
rieties of Heather, etc. In gardens of more scope Magnolias 
may also be introduced as well as other material. 
Camellias and Rhododendrons should be given ample 
space for ultimate development. As much as six to ten 
feet from each other is not too much. Then the space be- 
tween them may be planted to Azaleas and other smaller 
growing material with charming effect. 
These plants succeed quite well under any normal soil 
condition in the Pacific Northwest in that region west of 
the Cascade Mountains, but for best results proper soil 
conditions should be attained. The ideal soil is one that is 
loose and friable with a good amount of peat or humus 
mixed in. Lime and any fertilizer containing lime should 
never be used. In the preparation of the soil, any hard clay 
should be removed and the bed or the holes prepared deep. 
Preparation to a depth of twenty-four inches or more is 
not too much. 
The following are fairly complete lists of the Azaleas, 
Camellias and Rhododendrons in stock and growing at the 
Rosefield Gardens. New varieties are being constantly 
added from time to time however, so that list contains 
many items that are very scarce and some that are not 
available for sale at the present time. This is especially 
true of the Camellias and Rhododendrons. However, there 
should be much satisfaction in the fact that among the va- 
rieties that are available are some of the choicest and most 
beautiful in existence. Such varieties in Rhododendrons for 
instance as — Loders White, Mrs. A. T. deLa Mare, Alice, 
Betty Wormald, Pink Pearl, Countess of Derby, Bagshot 
Ruby, Brittania, Cornubia, C.B. Van Nes, Mme. d Bruin, 
Cynthia and Unknown Warrier, to mention a few are all of 
such beauty as to be the equal of many of the still scarce 
ones, and it may also be said that many of these may never 
be surpassed. 
Azaleas, Camellias and Rhododendrons and other 
shrubs are sold and delivered only at the gardens. We 
make no deliveries or shipments to destination. In most 
instances the size of the ball of earth containing the roots 
would make shipment too costly. 
Prices are based on size and variety selected.
