1949-50 AZALEA LIST 
A century ago, hundreds of different 
varieties of azaleas were imported from Europe 
and planted in Magnolia Gardens. The vast 
majority were unsuited to this climate and 
perished; others have stood the test of time and 
are flourishing in the gardens. The names of 
many have been lost through the years and it 
has been necessary to rename them as no one 
has been able to identify the varieties from old 
European catalogues. We have selected the best 
for propagation, many of which are listed herein, 
in addition to the old favorites. Each year we 
will put out others still not in commerce, as fast 
as we can build up stocks.
