generous amounts of leaf mold or peat moss at the time of planting followed by a 
mulch of the same material to retain the moist atmosphere about the plants. 
Inland, away from the coast, they prefer shade. Plants should never be allowed to 
dry out, especially during the warm summer months.

GARDENIAS 
For Corsages ... Home Grown 
Grow Gardenias at home and have your own corsages all summer. As orna- 
mental shrubs, Gardenias rate very high—the depth of green is not too deep be- 
cause the sheen on the leaves lightens the effect by reflecting light. They require 
very acid soil and often show yellowing in the leavs. Applications of acid fertilizer, 
sulfur or alum, correct this and new bright green readily returns. When the old 
leaves drop, just before growth, they become a rich yellow, which lasts only a short 
time and is quite different from the yellowing caused by alkaline soil. 
Rosedale’s Mystery Gardenia 
The finest development in a large-flowered Gardenia for home growing. Flowers 
vary in size from 3 to 5 inches across. Sun, but sometimes will do well in part 
shade. Planted as hedge, Gardenias make one of the most desirable and valuable 
ornamental hedges imaginable. The deep green glossy leaves and perfect flowers 
are best when not watered either too much or too often. Gal. 90c, 5-gal. $3.50. 
Gardenia Veitchi. Desirable as an ‘‘ever-blooming’’ Gardenia. Produces flowers 
all summer although somewhat smaller in size than Mystery, they are nonetheless 
perfect in form and fragrance. Gal. 90., 5-gal. $3.50.
