DO NOT LIME AZALEAS While carnations revel In lime, it is death to the beautiful azaleas. Now is the time to plant out some of these useful flowering shrubs. In semishaded borders, with a protecting wall or tall paling-fence on the northern side of them is the most suitable position. Use a large percentage of leaf soil in compost. Old cow manure that is well rotted is the best for them. Some beautiful rich colours are produced in various types of singles and doubles, also in the semi-doubles, among the ordinary garden azaleas.
