AZALEA INDICA 
The Indicas, which are fast growers with masses of 
large flowers, are especially adapted for landscape planting 
all along the Gulf Coast up the Atlantic seaboard to North 
Carolina. Around Mobile, Charleston, and some other 
sections, there are plants seventy to one hundred years 
old, with a spread from 20 to 30 feet across, apparently 
growing without any special care, showing they are per- 
fectly at home and easy to grow. 
Brilliant. A good grower with small, dark green leaves. 
Deep watermelon color, intermediate between Pride of 
Mobile and Pride of Dorking. A very fine variety. 
Coccinea Major. Brilliant orange-red. A little taller 
grower than Prince of Orange. 
Duc de Rohan. Compact grower with small leaves and 
a profusion of beautiful salmon-pink flowers. One of 
the best varieties for pot-culture. 
Elegans. Fast and rather upright grower, similar to 
Formosa, with light-colored pink flowers early in 
season. 
Fielder’s White. Large, pure white flowers early in 
season. A strong grower, free blooming, and one of the 
best whites. 
Formosa. Very fast grower with large dark leaves and 
big purplish pink flowers. 
George Franc. Early bloomer with extra-large, salmon- 
pink flowers having deep red throats. Very showy. 
Geo. Taber. One of the most popular Indica Azaleas. 
Blush-pmk with deeper markings of pink and red. 
Large plant; late blooming. 
Glory of Sunninghill. Compact grower with shiny 
narrow leaves and vivid orange-red flowers. One of the 
latest to bloom. 
Indica Alba. Rather upright grower, with dull-colored, 
hairy leaves and pure white flowers in midseason. Very 
hardy. 
Lilacina. Delicate orchid—the color of the eastern sky 
at dawn. A strong grower with large leaves. 
Omurasaki. A hardy, strong-growing variety with long 
foliage. Flowers rose-lavender in color. Midseason. 
Phoenicia. Fast grower with medium-sized leaves and 
large, purplish pink flowers. It will probably withstand 
more heat and sun than any other Azalea. 
President Clay. Good grower with orange-red flowers 
in midseason. 
Pride of Dorking. One of the deepest reds of the entire 
group. Blooms late in the season and, while not very 
hardy, is yet one of the best.
