We propagate Rhododendrons from cuttings, rooted first Mm 
transplanted in the peat moss and very little sof sifted soil, to insure 
normal root structure growth, with all chemicAl elements present. The 
cuttings grow on in the greenhouse benches and the plants are «trans- 
planted outdoors in the lath houses in the mixture of about half peat moss_ 
and half fine soil. This method is best guarantee against the set back or 
losses of the plants; this happens when plants are grown in sawdust and 
“artificial” chemicals. We propagate also by grafting indicated in list 
by (gr). 
We have nine acres of ideal soil along Johnson Creek located 11 miles 
from the city center, 2 miles from the city limit. Nickolas Radovich is 
a graduate of Oregon state college; has been experimenting with these 
plants for 23 years. We produce 24,000 annually; also large stock of 
budded plants of various sizes.
