A LITTLE KNOWN HYDEANGEA. 



We have had in bloom for nearly a 

 month Hydrangea Bretschneideri, a 



Elant received from Europe as H. Pe- 

 inensis, but according to Professor 

 Bailey having the simple name of 

 Bretschneideri. It is the earliest to 

 bloom of any of the hardy hydrangeas 

 we know and the prettiest of all in 

 bloom, with its graceful, lace-like flow- 

 ers, half sterile, pure white, mingled 

 with fertile flowers. Every twig is 

 surmounted with a fine truss, more re- 

 sembling a crape myrtle than any other 

 flowering shrub I know. 



Professor Sargent, of the Arnold 

 Arboretum, wrote me April 1, 1912: 

 "We have grown here for years Hy- 

 drangea Bretschneideri and think it a' 

 valuable plant. It is quite hardy and 

 the first of all the hydrangeas to bloom. 

 C. S. Sargent." 



I have not in recent years seen this 

 mentioned in European catalogues.

THE OFFICIAL ENTOMOLOGISTS. 



[The report of the committee on coSperatlon 

 with entomologists, presented by L. A. Berck- 

 mans, of Augusta, Ga., at the thirty-seventh 

 annual convenUon of the American Association 

 of Nurserymen, in Boston, June 12 to 14, 1912.] 



The entomologists and the nursery- 

 men should be on the most friendly 

 terms, as it is to the interest of all 

 parties concerned that all differences 

 be wiped out and all pull together. 

 Within the last year the entomologists 

 and nurserymen have been drawn closer 

 to one another than ever before. The 

 many conferences between the com- 

 mittee of oflBcial entomologists and the 

 committee on legislation have been the 

 means of establishing a better under- 

 standing between the two parties. 



It is the duty of the entomological 

 departments to prevent the introduc- 

 tion of injurious insects and dangerous 

 fungous diseases, and they stand ready 

 at aH times to come to the assistance 

 of the nurseryman, fruit grower or 

 farmer when he is threatened with 

 an invasion of insects, etc.
