AZALEA CALENDULACEUM. 

 A lover of flowers who has had the 

 good fortune to see the yellow-flow 

 ered Azalea in June on the wooded 

 slopes of the southern Appalachian 

 Mountains can never forget it. North 

 America does not offer a more beauti- 

 ful flower show. No other North 

 American shrub has such brilliantly 

 colored flowers; and no other Azalea 

 hardy in New- England can be com- 

 pared with it in the variety of color 

 found in its flowers. The flowers of 

 the Korean Azalea Schlippenbachii 

 are larger and more delicate in texture 

 and color, and those of the Japanese 

 A. Kaempferi are more surprising for 

 it is always a surprise to find the 

 bright red flowers of this Azalea on a 

 bare New England hillside. These 

 plants when they are in flower look 

 exotic here and do not fit our Ameri- 

 can surroundings as well as our yel- 

 low-flowered plant. The flowers, too, 

 of the American plant remain in good 

 condition longer than those of any cf 

 the Asiatic Azaleas, and they were not 

 injured by the excessive heat of last 

 week which spoiled the flowers of 

 many other plants. A good many 

 plants of R. calendulaceum have been 

 raised at the Arboretum from seed, 

 and many of the seedlings which are 

 now blooming on Azalea Path show 

 the variation in the color of the flow- 

 ers from clear yellow to flame, which 

 adds to the interest of a collection of 

 these plants in early June.
