north as North Carolina. 
INSTRUCTIONS FOR GROWING AZALEAS 
1. Provide acid soil, use plenty of leaf mold (Oak 
leaves most desirable), pond muck or peat moss. 
2. Lime or alkaline soil is poisonous; remove such soil 
to depth of two feet and fill in with acid soil, about 
one-third each leaf mold, good loam and peat moss. 
To this, add one four-inch pot of Aluminum Sul- 
phate to wheelbarrow of soil.
