AZALEA INDICA. 411 



The catalogues of florists contain lists of hundreds of 

 azaleas, all of which are beautiful. There is, however, 

 great room for selection, and as none can grow all, we give 

 a list of a few which cannot fail to give general satisfac- 

 tion.

Souvenir de Prince Albert. White and rose, very large 

 double flower, a late blooming variety. 



Sigismund Rucker. A very distinct variety with large 

 flowers, rosy lake with broad margin of pure white, large

 compact habit and brilliant flower.

 stance.

 yellow blotch.
