RHODODENDRON MAXIMUM. The great American Rosebay. Per¬ 
fectly hardy in the latitude of Quebec. 
Rhododendron maximum is without doubt the noblest of 
American broad-leaved shrubs. It is found growing sparingly 
in New England and New York, more abundantly in the Penn¬ 
sylvania mountains, but reaching perfection only in the South¬ 
ern Alleghaney mountains where it grows in such luxuriance 
as to form a striking feature in the mountain landscape. Its 
large, waxy white or delicately pink flowers appear in large 
trusses in July, the latest of all the Rhododendrons, greatly 
enhancing its ornamental value as a broad-leaved evergreen 
for finished landscape effect. 
Not even in Asia do Rhododendrons grow more luxuriantly 
than fn our Southern Alleghany Mountains, where they attain 
a height of 30 feet or more. They must be seen in their native 
lavishness of growth anc ^ bloom, on the mountain-sides or 
hanging over the dashing ice-cold streams and water-falls, to 
be properly appreciated, and a trip to the high Carolina moun¬ 
tains in spring and early summer is a never-to-be-forgotten 
series of joys to the lover of nature. 
In our northern gardens Rhododendron maximum (and other 
species to a small extent) is subject to damaging attacks from 
the lace-wing fly, particularly in sunny locations. It is easily 
kept in control with an emulsion of five to ten pounds of whale- 
oil soap and one to two quarts of kerosene to 100 gallons of 
water, used with a spray pump having a fine nozzle.
