The months of May and June may be made glorious by having a good 
succession of the best Azaleas. From May 5th to 20th, R. molle is at its best; 
May 18th to May 30th, R. flavum. May 20th to June 18th, the Ghents are in 
full flower, and May 30th to June 20th, the Anthony Waterer hybrids. 
Especially are they valuable to force contrast by means of yeUow masses which 
cannot be found in the true hardy Rhododendrons (except R. “ Broughtoni 
AUREUM ” and R. “ Smithii aureum ”). Kew in late May and early June has 
ever been a Mecca of garden lovers in “ Azalea ” time, and when we consider 
that any garden of suitable soil can be made so lovely, these glorious shrubs 
should be the first consideration for those who only desire plants of exceptional 
beauty with ease of culture.
