Gerbing’s Azalea and Camellia Gardens.

ber 30th, 1945. Visitors to the Garden unanimously expressed their delight with the large 
volume of Camellia Bloom predominating from November through February. Azaleas 
from March 1st to May 1st thrill the visitor. Annuals, Bulbs and Perennials by the tens 
of thousands give this garden a diversity seldom found in Camellia and Azalea Gardens. 
Open to the public from November 15th to May Ist. 
What You Should Not Do With Azaleas and Camellias. 
Do not spray plants in winter with Oil Emulsion. 
Do not place soil or muck on the surface of the ground around Azaleas or Camellias after 
they have been planted. 
Do not permit your plants to remain dry at the roots when cold weather is reported. 
Do not cultivate around the roots. 
Do not allow heavy cloth to rest directly on the plants in freezing weather. (We do not 
cover any of our plants at any time). 
Do not over-fertilize your plants. (They are naturally slow growers and too much fertilizer 
will weaken them). Do not remove or loosen the burlap on Camellias. 
Do not plant too deep. Do not plant on a mound. Do not lift the plant by the trunk. 
Do not plant them in poor unsuitable soil, they will not give satisfactory results.
