AZALEAS are “tops” among the flowering shrubs and are not as diffi- 
cult to grow as most people believe. A location protected from dry 
winds such as the east side of a building, partial shade, plenty of 
peat, and not too much lime in the soil will satisfy the hardy kind 
listed. Most varieties grown in the South and East are not hardy 
here and not adaptable to Iowa soil. 
Clusters of large flowers, before the leaves, pale yellow to red, 
mostly orange. Mildly acid soil. All will bloom the first season 
planted. Plenty of humus and some protection from the driest 
winds and hottest sun are its requirements.
