Mountain Laurel (Kalmia latifolia)— 
Shade tolerant and acid loving this 
Pennsylvania state flower is very 
effective planted with Rhododen- 
dron, Holly and Pieris. Light to 
deep pink flowers are borne in clus- 
ters in May or June and it is equally 
beaut'ful in bud and bloom. It re- 
quires an acid soil with an abun- 
dance of humus and good drainage. 
Rhododendron— 
The dark green leathery foliage 
forms a fine foil for the large and 
colorful flowers as well as a_ back- 
ground for other shubbery. Used wide- 
ly in groups of masses although single 
specimens show to great advantage. 
They are all shade loving but contrary 
to popular belief will grow in full sun 
equally well with the possible excep- 
tion of the variety Maximum. They 
require good drainage, a soil high in 
humus with acid reaction and prefer 
a mulch at all times of peat moss or 
oak leaves. We will be glad to advise 
you of a smple way to acidfy your 
soil and can furnish the medium at a 
small cost. 
Carolina (Rhododendron carolinian- 
um)—Small leaved, rugged and 
dwarf with pink flowers in May. It 
is attractive as a specimen or in the 
foundation planting or rockery.
