From December 1937 Horticulture: “Two chrysanthe¬ 
mums similar in growth and habit to Azaleamum were 
procured from a Spokane, Wash., nurseryman this year 
and have proved very healthy, attractive and frost- 
resistant. One, Lorelei, has bright golden yellow flowers 
similar in size and arrangement to Azaleamum, and the 
other. Red Flare, is a bright rusty red and was con¬ 
tinuing to bloom on November 5 after successive heavy 
frosts.”—Robert C. Moncure, Alexandria, Va.
