DESCRIPTION OF THE RHODODENDRON. 91 



Wliere figures of any have been given in illus- 

 trated periodicals, we have referred to the plate. 

 For convenience we give the list alphabetically. 



Many of these have the blood of many species ; 

 and some, perchance, have no trace of Catawbiense, 

 yet, as hardy garden Rhododendrons, their place 

 seems to be in this list, and, without vouching for 

 parentage, we call the class 



Catawbiense Hybrids.
