DISCOLOR—This ig one of the very finest exotic species that may be grown 
in our climate. It hails from West Central China and has been described as 
“E. H. (Chinese) Wilson’s second best discovery.’ What interests us is that 
it is hardy in our part of the world in partially shaded woodland sites 
where it opens its great white or pale blush blossoms in late June. Normally 
grows into a tree twelve to fifteen feet high but more often seen as a large 
shrub. 8-12 in., $2.00 
DISCOLOR HYBRIDS—Unflowered and colors unknown. 4-6 ft., $10 - $15 
FORTUNEI—Very large blush pink fragrant flowers and dependably hardy 
with us. Another so called ‘“‘tree” species that hardly reaches that stature in 
cultivation but is often tree like in habit. The corolla is seven lobed instead 
of the usual five. Rhododendron Fortunei is quite free from all insect damage 
—in fact almost immune—and this also applies to its close relatives R. 
discolor and R. decorum. All hybrids of these species seem to partake of 
these pest resistant characters to a great extent. I have yet to observe a 
single lace bug or white fly on them and leaf eating worms rarely touch 
them. Fortunei itself, perhaps never. Large sizes, 4-8 ft. on application. 
6-8 in., $1.50 
FORTUNE! HYBRIDS—A mixed lot, unflowered. 2-3 it. $5.00 
GOMER WATERER—Late white. 10-12 in., $5.00 
HAEMALEUM HYBRIDS—tThis dwarf species with blackish crimson flowers 
has been mated wtih Catawbiense and Catawbiense hybrids and we offer 
some unflowered seedlings. Of slow growth. 2-3 ft., $6.00 
JOHN WALTER—Crimson. 8-10 in., $5.00 
LONGESQUAMATUM—Have a few seedIngs of this unusual species which 
has surprised us by surviving our winters for a number of years unscathed. 
A sturdy, fine looking plant with pink gloxinia shaped flowers that are 
heavily spotted dark crimson in the throat. 4 yr. sdigs., 4-6 in., $2.50 
MADAM de BRUIN—Cerise red flowers. 8-10 in., $5.00

RACEMOSUM. 59717. ROCK NO.—Dwarf type with charming rose pink 
flowers and flowering when only a few inches high. 4 in. pots, $1.00 
SUTCHUENENSE—A Chinese species that opens its large pink flowers ex- 
cedingly early. A warm week in March will open them—only to freeze later 
in most seasons. But it is hardy and generally succeeds in bringing a few 
blossoms through in any season with a really good show on occasion. For 
those who must have something to gamble on, here it is. 3-6 in. sdlgs., $1.00 
UNIQUE—Have a very few of this yellow flowered tender hybrid. 
6-in. pots, $5.00
