CHUGAI AZALEAS 
A new group from the Chugai Nursery Co. near Osaka, 
Japan. These are late flowering. Flowers are usually varie- 
gated, white or pink ground with red, lilac or purple stripes, 
white base with colored margin, or purple with white varie 
gation and edge. These need more and wider trial before 
we can recommend planting in exposed or colder sections.

DEERFIELD AZALEAS 
These hybrids were produced with the purpose of securing 
a hardier type than the Kurume varieties. We have not had 
many reports on their hardiness but the few do seem to be 
favorable. They are hardy here and we feel they are 
worthy of a trial in colder sections.

iety. Clear pink as in Hinomayos but larger. Hose-in-hose. 
FRIGID. Hybrid of Hinomayo and Rosmarinifolia. Medium

white flowers with foliage similar to Ledifolia Alba.
