SS, uggedliond Cw Planting 
Camellias, Azaleas and Rhododendrons are three of the choicest shrubs that are 
used in landscapes. They are all evergreen blooming plants. The Camellias bloom 
first and before they are through blooming the Azaleas start to bloom and the Rhodo- 
dendrons follow on through, which gives a long season of blooms. The Mollis Azalea 
loses its leaves in the winter so should be planted among the evergreen shrubs. The 
dwarf Heathers also fit in nicely with Camellias, Azaleas and Rhododendrons as they 
bloom summer, winter, spring and fall. Gardeners that have only a limited time to 
work in their yards will appreciate all of these plants as there is very little pruning, 
no transplanting if placed properly to start, and very little if any spraying for insects 
to do. They are also easy to grow as they all prefer the same type acid, loose peat-moss 
soil. But one should be very careful not to over-fertilize the Azaleas. A teaspoonful 
of any acid fertilizer each year is plenty. If your climate is hot and dry no doubt you 
will have a sweet soil. To produce acid soil epsom salts or aluminum sulphate can be 
used. About one tea-cup per plant and water in well. They like water on their foliage 
as they breathe through their leaves, which makes them easy to care for as you 
can easily turn the sprinkler on them for an hour or so once or twice a week, depend- 
ing of course on your climate. Never allow soil around plants to dry. The old Camellia 
and Rhododendron blooms are liable to cause a disease so be sure to keep them 
picked off from plants and do not allow them to lie on the ground. Dispose of them. 
Do not use them in compost piles. 
If these simple instructions are followed all plants should be thrifty, healthy 
plants that bloom profusely. They should be a joy to all flower lovers the year around.
