Azaleas 
There is nothing more colorful or more beautiful 
than Azaleas in full bloom in the spring. Azaleas 
bloom in such profusion that each bush is a solid 
mass of color. Their season of blooming is very long, 
beginning with winter-blooming Vittata Fortunei 
and extending into June when the pretty dwarf 
Macrantha is covered with its soft orange-pink 
blossoms. Recently there have been beautiful, new 
introductions that make the Azalea even more de- 
sirable. It is now possible to grow Azaleas beyond 
the borders of the Lower South.
