KURUME AZALEAS 
Kurume Azaleas are slow growing, sometimes called 
“dwarf,” and are often seen in borders along walks and in 
planting around or in front of larger Azaleas, in rock gar- 
dens, and in beds. They are adapted to a great variety of 
uses. Kurumes will eventually reach a height of 4 to 6 feet, 
however, unless kept pruned back. They are hardy all over 
the South and as far north as New Jersey and Long Island. 
Extensively used by florists as pot plants, and in the North 
they bloom for them at Easter time. The individual blooms 
are small in comparison to the individual blooms of the 
Indicas, but the Kurume blooms are borne in greater pro- 
fusion and in clusters. Some blooms are single, while others 
have two rows of petals and are described as “hose-in-hose.” 
You will note the wide range of colors. :

PERICAT AZALEAS 
The Pericats are rapidly growing in popularity. They 
are very similar to the Kurumes. The partially open buds 
present a very distinct and different appearance, and re- 
semble a miniature rose. All varieties are compact, vigorous, 
and hardy. They are used in every way that the Kurumes 
are used, and in addition to the spread of climate which the 
Kurumes will take, the Pericats seem to be doing nicely as 
far south as southern Florida.
