Excerpt from Select List of Hardy Trees and Shrubs From the Descriptive Catalogue of Parsons and Sons Co., Limited, 1897
Rhododendrons, Kalmias, Azalea amoena and other fibrous rooted evergreen shrubs may be planted any time between earliest Spring and mid-f all, except during the few weeks of actual growth.
Upon the arrival of the shipment, open the parcel but do not expose the roots to sun or wind until ready to plant; should this have to be deferred, dig a trench sufficiently large, heeling in the plants closely and watering the roots thoroughly before replacing the top soil. Special care should be exercised in handling ever greens by avoiding unnecessary exposure of roots; it is always safer to puddle the roots of evergreens by dipping each plant into a pool of mud of suitable consist ency so that it will adhere to the roots, and then protecting them immediately; this is especially important in the case of Spruces, Pines and Firs.
Packing by bale or box, according to our judgment, is done with the utmost care, for which there will be an invariable charge to cover cost.
