HARDY AZALEAS 
Gayest and brighest of all flowering plants. Grows best in 
sun or light shade. Acid, loose, rich. On these two pages are 
listed the showiest kinds, but we can furnish on quotation 
many others—and more sizes than we here have space to list. 
Note: Both evergreen and deciduous sorts are grouped in one 
alphabetical listing for convenience sake. 

An acid soil is important. Given ordinary garden soil, 
Azaleas will succeed provided acid condition exists. To secure 
acidity there are many methods. A mulch of leaves applied 
every year is good. Sawdust two or three inches deep, if the 
sawdust be well rotted, is also excellent.

ON CHOOSING THE RIGHT AZALEA 
The beginner is bewildered by the sheer number of varieties, of which 
these two pages list only a few of the best. There are hundreds more 
in existence. Surprisingly, few overlap entirely. For one thing, the color 
shades all differ slightly. For another, the time of bloom varies. Then, © 
even among hardy varities, some are hardier than others. But the fact is, 
the size and nature of the azalea can vary from a low, bushy dwarf with 
evergreen leaves to a great ten foot bush with deciduous leaves. These 
last, including our native A. calendulaceae and the Mollis Azaleas, are 
entirely different in appearance and use—might well be given another 
name altogether. 
For the evergreen, or nearly evergreen kinds, we have listed twelve 
of the older varieties grouped according to the size of shrub. Any one of 
these twelve kinds can be purchased in the following two sizes: 
Mello-glo—orange-pink, early 
Mosseana—purple, early
