KALMIA 
Mountain Laurel 
K. latifolia (Mountain Laurel). The pink blooms 
of Mountain Laurel in June can hardly be 
matched by any other plant for profusion, deli- 
cate form or lasting quality. Most effective in 
group planting and must have acid soil. M

LEUCOTHOE 
L. Catesbaei (Drooping Leucothoe). Most beauti- 
ful dwarf shrub for either shade or sun. White, 
bell-shaped flowers cover the drooping stems in 
early Spring. Prices are low for bushy plants. 
The Fall and Winter color of foliage is bronze 
to red and most decorative. Branches cut for 
floral arrangements last for weeks inside the 
home and the cutting improves the plant. M

PIERIS 
P. japonica (Andromeda). Hardy Laurel-like 
leafed plant of unequaled value in a broadleaf 
planting. Glossy leaves of various shades with 
lovely sprays of Lily-of-the-valley-like clusters 
of white flowers in very early Spring. M

P. floribunda (American Andromeda). Foliage 
similar in size and pattern to P. japonica but 
flowers differ, growing in showy, upright clus- 
ters rather than drooping. Very much in de- 
mand for its habit of lateral growth into a 
handsome mound of rich green retained 
throughout the Winter. M

PYRACANTHA 
P. coccinea Lalandii (Firethorn). Semi-evergreen. 
Strong, slender branches rising from the ground 
develop stubby side growths upon which are hung 
the numerous orange-red berries. Amazingly beau- 
tiful in the Fall, especially when planted against a 
gray stone background. S

RHODODENDRONS 
Rhododendrons require little care after they 
become established, except possibly some judi- 
cious pruning to keep them full and bushy and 
yet they yield the loveliest flowers in early June 
or late May. They grow best in a light, some- 
what acid soil which is moist but well-drained. 
(They dislike “wet feet.) They do well in shade 
or partial sun and sometimes, unless protected 
in Winter, they may suffer some burning in 
windy areas. 
R. carolinianum. A very early blooming variety, 
small and compact. Has handsome, dark green 
leaves and in May and June produces a profusion of 
soft rose pink bloom. A great favorite. 5S

parent of most hybrids. Will grow in any soil that is 
free from lime, is very hardy, and needs little atten- 
tion. Large, round clusters of deep rosy purple flow- 
ers, appearing in May or June, just after R. caro- 
linianum. Well budded plants. M

HYBRIDS 
These well-budded plants are offered in an unusu- 
ally select list of varieties, and it is through these 
named varieties or hybrids—that is, grafted stock—

June are obtained. Hybrids are noted, too, for their 
superior foliage. 
Our Hybrid Rhododendrons are the healthiest we 
have ever had and we offer only those varieties 
which are hardy in this area. M
