Beat inflation. $10.00 put in the bank today will not be worth $10.00 5 years 
from now. But $10.00 invested in our small plants should be worth $50.00 to $100.00 in a 
few years. In addition you get a lot of pleasure watching them grow. You are also doing 
your part to add beauty to a troubled world. 
The plants we have to offer are too small now for landscaping, but by placing 
them in a nursery bed and earefully nurturing them - you will be surprised at the lovely 
showing they will make in 2 or 3 years. The specimens of Azaleas, Pieris Japonica, flower- 
ing trees, yews and shrubs many of our customers have acquired in a few years are amazing. 
These plants would be quite expensive if purchased as large specimens but with a little 
patience and time you too can produce specimens from these baby plants we have to offer. 
These plants are vividly deseribed in Hette’s Book on Shrubs and Book on Trees at 
$4.00 Each postpaid. We can supply both. Make good Christmas and birthday presents. All 
plants should be grown in 4 bed for one or more years before planting in permanent place. 
For $5.00 you can select $6.00 worth of plants from this list. Prices include 
packing and postal charges. As we sell our plants at such low prices no order of 
less than $2.00 will he accepted. No broken lots will be sold. Where order calls for 
5 for 50 cts. one will not be sold for 10 cts- 5 must be ordered. 25 sold at 100 rate. 
Prices per 100 are net, no discount. 
Please suggest one substitute per 10 items ordered. 4

The group containing Azaleas are very easy to handle if planted in part shade, 
provided either by a building or a lath screen; this should be elevated 4' te 5" on stakes 
to provide free circulation of air underneath. Plant in a soil mixture containing 50% good 
light garden loam and 50% granulated peat moss or oak leaf mould. Water well after planting 
and wuloh with leaf mould or peat moss. Do not cultivate but pick weeds out by pulling. Do 
not allow ground to get dry, but do not water too much or too often, there is a happy 
medium. These plants will all do well in part shade and also in sun. Cut off 75% of light 
for first 6 weeks and then 50%. 
AZALEAS AND OTHER ACID LOVING PLANTS: 
"Chinese" E. H. Wilson said speaking of Azaleas, "They are not surpassed in 
wealth of blossom by any class of hardy shrubs. The flowers vary enormously in size in 
the different species and embrace all shades of every color except blue. In many, the 
flowers are delightfully fragrant, -~- gmall wonder the desire to possess them is 50 gene 
eral. Wo olass of shrubs possesses greater attractions, and given certain essential con- 
ditions and provided the varieties are perfectly hardy their culture is fairly Simple.* 
A Philadelphia collection of Azaleas and Rhododendrons is visited each year 
by thousands of people who marvel at the brilliant, vivid colors and profusion of bloom, 
which is almost unbelievable, and yet for a few dollars and a bit of patience a more 
extensive range of colors and varieties is available from this list.
