VEIGELIA-FLOWERED AZALEAS. 



It is about twenty-five years since 

 Waterer, of Bagshot, England, succeeded 

 in raising a hybrid between the Asiatic 

 Azalea mollis and the North American 

 A. occidentalis. This hybrid appeared in 

 1890, and was regarded as a wonderful 

 flower — large in size, marked with a 

 golden blotch. It has probably disap- 

 peared in the course of time, for there 

 appeared at about that date a number 

 of bright-colored Azalea mollis varieties; 

 colors which are not yet excelled. Azalea 

 arborescens has been employed by some 

 German hybridist for its strong habit 

 of growth, and it will soon be noted how 

 far crosses have been successfully made 

 with A. molUs for its beautiful coloring, 

 and with A. occidentalis for its florifer- 

 ousness, Herr Henkel, of Darmstadt, be- 

 ing in the position soon to place on the 

 market varieties resulting from these 

 crosses. The varieties derived from the 

 above named parents are perfectly hardy, 

 rather later in flowering than A. mollis, 

 and the flowers longer; the trusses, and 

 single blooms at least of the same size 

 as A. mollis. The colors are intermedi- 

 ate between white and reddish copper, 

 but mostly tender rose, which, according 

 to the Horticultural Trade Journal, may 

 be best compared with those of a 

 weigelia. 



Gary, Ind. — The firm of Franzen & 

 Little was recently organized here and 

 has opened a store at 6M Broadway. The 

 new company will handle both flowers 

 and nursery stock, giving special atten- 

 tion to landscape gardemng. Mr. Fran- 

 zen is the resident partner, and is no 

 stranger to Gary, having done a consider- 

 able amount of work here in the line of 

 trees and shrubs.
