We are offering three clonal forms of Rhododen- 
dron Augustinil, one of the most beautiful species 
and unequalled as an ornamental. As a general 
rule, seedlings of this species have been disappoint- 
ing. Invariably, the flowers were an off color and 
frequently were a dirty violet or pale washed out 
lavender. Consequently, we have imported these 
three selected forms, and offer them with the posi- 
tive assurance that they are the finest types of R. 
Augustinii obtainable. 
**** AUGUSTINII (Series Triflorum, Sub-series 
Augustinii) A species from approximate- 
lyen0, 000s taltitude ings. Ww. China. It 
eventually becomes a compact shrub 
about 6 feet in height and about the 
same in width. As the young growth de- 
velops, the narrow pointed leaves have 
a lovely bronze cast to them before they 
turn to a pleasing shade of soft green. 
The flowers which appear in May, are 
in clusters of 3 and occur in such pro- 
fusion as to almost obscure the foliage. 
Each blossom is about 2% inches wide. 
flattish in shape and with the stamens 
and pistil long exserted. We are con- 
fident that this will become one of the 
most popular blue evergreen, flowering 
shrubs in the garden.
