Hardy Hybrid Rhododendrons 
Plant Rhododendrons for display and splendor. 
This genus is described by a writer as “the aristocrat of 
the evergreen world’ and it fully merits this title, as, on non- 
calcareous soils, it is supreme as a shrub of beauty and utility. 
It is to be regretted that so many uninteresting shrubs are 
where Rhododendrons would so easily thrive.
