Knap Hill Azaleas 
The following Azaleas have been propagated from varieties we pur- 
chased from the Knap Hill Nurseries in England in 1948. The plants 
from cuttings made in the Summer of 1951, are mostly unbranched 
and from 4 or 5 ins. to perhaps 10 or 12 ins. in height depending on 
the variety. Ordinarily we would grow these on for another year but 
there have been so many inquiries we are making them available 
at $2.50 each. 
The ratings given are our own and not A.R.S. ratings. However, they 
are based on the same system, xxxx for the best varieties.

When we obtained the named varieties listed above, there were in- 
cluded in the shipment from the Knap Hill Nurseries certain plants 
listed as “Miscellaneous Layers”. We have observed these carefully 
and find that two of them are particularly nice. We call these Layer 
No. 3 and Layer No. 5. 
xxxx LAYER NO. 3 —Vigorous, rather spreading bush. Very light pink. Up- 
per petal has some orange. R. occidentale characters 
in this flower. Flowers large, frilled. 
xxxx LAYER NO. 5 —Vigorous, rather tall. Buff yellow suffused with orange, 
buds quite reddish orange. Not ruffled.
