 here, although we have been growing them outside several years. 

 SWEETHEART SUPREME. The favorite florists pink.

U.S.D.A. AZALEAS 



Some years ago the U.S. Dept. of Agriculture introduced a collection of 

 Azaleas mostly from Japan. We have been growing these Azaleas many 

 years and have selected the following varieties as the best ones in this col- 

 lection. They are well worth trying. 



BENI KIRISHIMA. Old rose, semi-double.

NEW U.S.D.A. AZALEAS 



The Crops Research Division of the Agricultural Research Service, U. S. 

 Department of Agriculture, hereby releases five azaleas. These varieties 

 were developed by B. Y. Morrison and J. L. Creech at the U. S. Plant 

 Introduction Station, Glenn Dale, Maryland, from a series of crosses made 

 in 1947 and designed to incorporate some of the flower qualities of the 

 Belgian-type azaleas into the hardy Glenn Dale hybrids. 



After widespread trials of 96 selections, the azaleas being released at this 

 time are considered to be -the most promising for the azalea-growing areas 

 of southeastern United States, from Washington, D. C, to Louisiana, and 

 for forcing in all areas. 



Their significant characteristic is in the pastel coloring of the flowers and 

 the heavy texture of the petals. Occasionally the white selections are flecked 

 and striped with red or purple, and some flowers show an irregular degree 

 of doubleness. They flower in the Washington, D. C, area about May 8 

 to 15. These are suggested for further trial. 



BAYOU (PI 279405). A spreading azalea with leaves narrow elliptic, 

 slightly hairy, dark green. Flowers 2/2" across, single but with occasional 

 petaloid stamens, white with occasional scarlet flakes and stripes.

GREEN MIST (PI 279406). A somewhat upright azalea with leaves glossy, 

 narrow elliptic, glabrous. Flowers 2J4" across, single, white with a distinct 

 greenish blotch, heavy texture to the flowers. We have found this the 

 hardier of this set.
