Birds, Perkie the Chipmunk and 
Perkie Plants are excellent companions 
for teaching children conservation and 
the wonders of nature. 
HYBRID RHODODENDRONS. The brilliant bloom of the Hima- 
layan rhododendron and the robust strength of American stock have 
been blended with skill and consummate patience to produce these 
superb hybrids. Their blooms are intensely vivid pinks, whites, 
lavenders and reds. Because they are hybrids, their qualities partake 
of all the great beauty of the Asiatic types, plus the hardiness of the 
American rhododendrons. They are somewhat less particular as to 
shade and soil conditions. /% dozen $3.75; 1 dozen $6.45, postpaid. 
PIERIS JAPONICA (Japanese andromeda). The profuse bloom 
and handsome foliage of this hardy ambassador from Japan have 
made it one of the most frequently selected broad-leaved evergreens. 
Breath-taking in April and May, when nodding carillons of bell- 
shaped white flowers sway in narrow clusters along its upright 
branches. Reaches 8 feet. Glossy foliage changing to a bronze hue 
as winter comes. 12 dozen $3.75; 1 dozen $6.45, postpaid. 
ILEX OPACA, AMERICAN HOLLY (Mascula and Femina). 
The American Holly has the hardiness and beauty of its English 
cousin. Given adequate moisture, it will establish itself even in 
mediocre soil and grow to tree-like proportions. Whether our holly 
holds the supernatural power attributed to the species by the ancient 
Romans—the ability to freeze water, repel lightning, and quiet unruly 
animals—is doubtful. It will, however, highlight your garden with 
the legendary grace of scalloped green foliage and scarlet berries that 
provide a twelve-month hint of Christmas. We offer both sexes to 
assure pollination. 14 dozen $5.45; 1 dozen $9.95, postpaid. 
RANCH, SPLIT-LEVEL HOMES. Ivy Hill Forest offers you a 
special collection of two-year-old Perkie Plants ideally adapted for 
growing to large size and then planting in their permanent location 
around the foundation of ranch or split-level homes. Both the % 
dozen and dozen include yews, azaleas for the sunny side of the house, 
rhododendrons for the shady side. Naturally, the larger quantity 
you buy, the more varied the collection. 4% dozen $3.75; 1 dozen 
$6.45, postpaid. 
SUNNY SPOTS AND SLOPES. Mountain pink is a choice ground 
cover, lending a bold splash of color to those hot, dry trouble-spots, 
where almost nothing else seems to thrive. Try phlox on a barren 
bank and you'll have flocks of blossoms and color. Grows only 2 
inches tall. Forms a dense mat. {44 dozen $3.50; 1 dozen $5.95, 
postpaid.
