E2 Rhododendron caractacus (bright red, bloom medium). 

 E2 Rhododendron carolinianum (R. punctatum in part). 

 This is a low, compact rhododendron native to the 

 high mountains of North Carolina, with broad leaves 

 and early rose-pink flowers in late May before the 

 new leaves appear. It was placed on the market 

 under the name R. punctatum. The real R. punc- 

 tatum is a taller looser-growing shrub, native to lower 

 altitudes from North Carolina south, with narrower 

 leaves, and flowers that bloom a month later than 

 those of R. carolinianum and are more or less over- 

 topped and obscured by new leaf-growth. The old 

 R. punctatum is now called R. minus. (See Rhodora, 

 vol. 14, No. 162, June, 1912.)
