PEAT HUMUS 
FOR SOIL BUILDING 
Most soils in the Southeast are lacking in humus, 
and we cannot too strongly urge the use of Peat 
Humus (sometimes called Peat Moss) to correct 
the deficiency. Peat Humus builds up the texture 
of the soil and promotes root growth and the assimi- 
lation of fertilizers and soil elements. While it is of 
value in building up soils for growing any kind of 
trees and shrubs, it is of especial merit in the culture 
of Azaleas and Camellias. 
We are agents for Florahome Peat Humus, and 
we guarantee this Peat to be absolutely free of 
seeds, sand, and roots. b

QUALITY 
IN CAMELLIAS 
Nearly all of our Camellias 
were grown in beds in lath- 
houses and woodland, some 
larger sizes in open fields. All 
are well-branched, thrifty 
plants. 
The growing of top-quality 
Camellias has become our 
principal interest. We are sure 
we can please you.
