The Weekly Florists^ Review^ 



OCTOBBK 10, 1906. 



and, again, that they "are bandsome Bhrubs, 

 much cultivated for their evergreen, leathery 

 leaves." etc.; that "the Pontic rhododendron, 

 fi. pontlcom, 1b the meet common species of 

 European gardens, hardy only as a low shrub 

 la the northern United States." The Encyclo- 

 pedia Brltannlca says, "the varieties grown In 

 Jardens are mostly derived from the Pontic 

 pecles (K. ponticnm) and the Virginian B. 

 Catawblense. These are mostly hardy in Eng- 

 laad. The commoa Pontic variety Is excellent 

 (or game covert from its hardiness," etc. 



The genus kalmia is said to comprise "six 

 •pecles of ornamental hardy evergreen shrubs," 

 of which Kalmia latifoUa is the best-lcnown 

 and most grown species. (Nicholson's Dictionary 

 of Gardening.) This species is widely known 

 In the United States as the American laurel. 



The appraiser does not deny that the plants 

 referred to are evergreens in this broad sense, 

 but states that the Aucuba Japonica Is culti- 

 Tated In this country almost exclusively as a 

 decorative shrub and grown under glass, and 

 that if exposed to the winters of this climate it 

 would perish. He admits that the Rhododen- 

 dron pontlcum Is hardy in our usual winters, 

 but maintains that neither that plant nor the 

 Kalmia latifoUa is hardy in all sections of the 

 United States. In our judgment, however, In- 

 quiiT as to whether a plant is hardy or not in 

 a particular locality or under given climatic 

 conditions Is not the proper test to determine 

 Its tariff classification as an evergreen. It Is 

 aufflclent If it fall within the general class of 

 evergreen plants. 



The protests are sustained with respect to 

 ▲ncuba Japonica, Kalmia latifolia, and Ithodo- 

 dendron pontlcum, and overruled as to all other 

 ■lerchandlse.
