num var. Roylei x Royal Flush, orange 
var.). This hybrid along with Lady Rose- 
berry and their various forms offer a dis- 
tinct “break” in Rhododendrons. The 
tubular flowers are carried in pendant 
trusses of from six to eight flowers. They 
are of good substance, rich orange in

This is a seedling of great merit which

rounded trusses contain from 8 to 9 open 
funnel shaped flowers which are an un- 
usual color combination, resembling the 
well known Talisman rose. Interior of the 
flower is suffused gold with pink shad- 
ing towards the edges of the lobes. Me- 
dium habit. Late May. Very scarce.

**** NAOMI (Aurora x Fortunei). We consider 
Naomi and its varieties to be one of the 
most outstanding group of hybrids sent 
to us from Exbury. The various Naomi 
forms listed below have a neat sturdy 
habit and resemble the Loderis in ap- 
pearance. However, unlike the Loderis, 
they are compact in habit, with smaller 
leaves and will withstand more exposure. 
The trusses are rounded, composed of 
from 9 to 10 flowers, which individually 
are fully five inches wide.

deeper yellow throat.

but eventually become pure white.

Maddenii). One of the parents of Lady 
Chamberlain and Lady Roseberry and

We are offering the pink and orange 
forms of this outstanding hybrid. Made 
by J. C. Williams.
