PRIDE OF MOBILE—A Flood of Flowers 50 
We've never actually counted them, but Pride C €a. 
of Mobile must literally bear thousands of blooms at a time! 
For certain, you can’t see the leaves or the bush for the flowers ! 
The picture above is typical—a billowing cloud of blooms, 
made up of huge 3-inch flowers of crisp, richest watermelon- 
pink! Plant your Pride of Mobile Azaleas this year! 
Azaleas to Central Florida 
Can you imagine your home, and all the others in 
Central Florida, without Azaleas? Amazing as it may seem, 
until Holmes Nurseries adapted and introduced them here, 
there were no Azaleas. Once Holmes had “‘proved’’ Azaleas, 
the rush of IMITATORS was overwhelming. 
The best place in Central Florida to buy Azaleas is still 
Holmes Nurseries. We still do those secret things that 
made it possible to make Azaleas grow and thrive here, 
and give our plants a head start on thriving growth and 
beauty. 
Let us help you enjoy Azaleas more, with these ‘“‘native”’ 
plants that have spent their entire life in our weather, 
temperature, sun and rain and our kind of compost— 
plants that won’t skip a beat in their vigorous life by mov- 
ing from our place to yours. Enjoy all the best colors, 
finest blooms, and unabating satisfaction with Holmes 
Azaleas. 
Holmes New GIANT Azaleas
