Hybrid Rhododendrons Rhododendron eatawbiense hybridum 
These plants are similar in habit to Catawban Rhodo- 
dendron. Leaves vary in a minor way. These hybrids 
prefer a fairly rich, well drained soil. They need a lot 
of water during dry spells, but do not flourish where 
surface water accumulates. Flowers are large, generally 
4 to 6 inches across, and are of many colors. These 
plants should be ordered by tlie color of blossom desired.
