AZALEAS | 
For massed display of brilliant color the azalea is unexcelled by any other 
shrub. Azaleas are easy to grow if you are careful to select hardy varieties 
for your climate and if you plant them in acid soil. 
Our map at the extreme right is designed to aid you in selecting the best 
varieties for your location. Soil in most of the East and Southeast is already 
acid but if your local soil happens to contain too much lime this can be 
easily counteracted by the use of an acid fertilizer. 
We are now offering both Ist year and 2nd year plants, There is little 
difference in the size since both have been kept cut back, but the 2nd 
year plants are heavier rooted and have sturdier stems. 
Many of the 2nd year plants will bloom this Spring. In general, the Ist 
year plants will not bloom until one year later.

CAMELLIAS =) \ 
The Aristocrat of Southern Gardens 
These plants are grown in open beds without the “benefit” of glass. They 
are a real bargain but they should not be confused with balled and burlapped 
field grown specimen plants. 
CAMELLIA SASANQUAS: As camellias go, this specie is very hardy. Re- 
ports as to just how hardy are conflicting but it is our opinion that they 
may be grown in Zones I, II and III. 
Sasanquas are not suitable for corsage work or cutting. They are hardier 
and freer blooming than the Camellia Japonicas and we recommend them — 
for landscape use. : 
SNOW ON THE Semi-double white. Very profuse. Our — 
MOUNTAIN 
ROSEA Large single flowers of brilliant pink. 
SLENDERLEE Watermelon pink, limber weeping foliage. 
WHITE BUTTERFLY White with pink blush. Single. 
CLEOPATRA Cherry red, single. Very compact growth. 
Dark green foliage. 
CAMELLIA JAPONICAS: Where they can be grown, the Camellia Japonica 
is generally considered the most desirable specie of camellia. The blooms 
are very satisfactory for cutting and corsages.
