Nubrid Rhododendrons ~ ~ ~ 
OUR RHODODENDRONS MUST BE SEEN TO BE APPRECIATED 
IMPORTED DIRECT FROM HOLLAND 
These fine specimen plants we are proud to offer you as an outstanding value. They 
are beautiful, low branched bushy plants, have survived severe winters and dry summers out 
in the open. 
Many show buds READY TO BLOOM NEXT SPRING. 
Rhododendrons being 
scarce, we were fortunate in securing an excellent selection, many varieties in all colors, from 
deep red, purple, white, pink to lilac, etc. 
Hybrid Rhododendrons can be planted in full sun or part shade. 
They have a tendency 
to grow leggy and spindly if planted in too shady a location. 
WE RECOMMEND: Mix your soil with Peat—¥Y2 bushel per plant—and provide good 
drainage. 
Be sure not to plant too deep. Rhododendrons are shallow feeders. 
Mulching with 
decaying oak leaves will provide the proper acidity. ALSO add some compost as food for good 
growth and bloom. Water frequently in dry weather. 
PIERIS (continued) 
P. JAPONICA (Japanese Andromeda). 5-6 
ft. Thick, shiny leaves, turning bronze in 
winter, with drooping clusters of small, 
white flowers in May. Grows slowly and 
does best in a moist, partially shaded 
place.

evergreens. Dark green leaves, small white

cantha are pot grown to assure safe trans- 
planting.

tinge of purple throughout. Free flowering. 
Though a compact grower, it is one of the 
largest growing hybrids.

ish-violet medium-size flowers, forming 
large round trusses. Very hardy and one 
of the easiest to grow. 
R. DR. H. C. DRESSELHUYS. Probably the 
best completely hardy red hybrid, though 
an upright, open grower. 
R. IGNATIUS SARGENT. In spite of its open

flowers keep it ever popular. 
R. LEE’S DARK PURPLE. Flowers deep bluish 
purple, a fine symmetrical grower, very 
compact.

all. A fast, neat grower that stays com- 
pact, and heavy to the ground.

as Dresselhuys, but is a more symmetrical 
and compact grower.
