Arnoldiana Azaleas 



In 1914 the late Jackson Dawson, then superintendent of the 

 Arnold Arboretum, at Boston, Mass., created a new type of hardy- 

 Azalea by crossing Azalea Kaempferi and Azalea Amoena. Of the 

 seedlings thus secured a considerable number were grown at Boston 

 from their infancy to floweiing age, when the following ones of 

 unusual beauty and vigor of growth were selected. Considering 

 their hardiness, their ultimate size, splendid foliage, abundant bloom 

 and desirable shades of color, they well deserve the distinction as 

 "one of the outstanding achievements in American plant breeding."

New U. S. D. A. Azaleas 



A group of new varieties of hardy evergreen Azaleas released 

 by the U. S. Department of Agriculture. Most of these were collect- 

 ed by the Department at the Agriculture College, Imperial Univer- 

 sity Komaba in Tokyo, Japan. They have been tried out by the 

 U. S. Department of Agriculture staff and other interested growers 

 and have been selected as being worthy of introduction in this 

 country. In ordering these Azaleas also use the number following 

 the name, this will insure your getting the variety wanted.
