TEN OAKS NURSERY AND GARDENS 138 
Ghent Hybrid--Seedling Grown 
A very beautiful group of Azalea, originated in Bel- 
gium. Decidious, upright, tall, broad, with flowers 
from 1% to 2% inches across. Will take 25 degrees 
below. Like full sun; moist soil (not wet soil). 
These seedlings were grown from seed here at Ten 
Oaks from one of the finest collections of Ghent Hy- 
brids in this country; located on an estate in the North. 
They are three years old and heavily branched. Many 
bloomed last year and were a knockout; running 90% 
yellow and shades of orange. Of course all are own 
roots, which gives them lasting quality. Being seedlings 
we cannot guarantee them as to color.
