Mostly hand pollinated seeds (HP*)
*all seed lots not marked are (HP), (HP) is not written.
op = Open pollinated
cp = Controlled Pollination, which differs from HP in that the stigma is
         physically covered after pollination. This  covering is meant to
         act as an extra protection against accidental contamination with
         unknown pollen.
cw = Collected in wild

All seed lots not marked 'selfed', 'cp', 'cw', 'op', or 'op, self fertile' are hand pollinated,
hp will not be written.

Some contributors have supplied us with a list of "little known hybrids" they have used.
This list will immediately follow the contributor's seed lot numbers.

Every effort is made to avoid spelling errors; species are listed under the name supplied by the
contributor and thus vary as to classification system. Not all hybrid names are registered or found
in other reference works.


S.O. = Sold out  or =  2044.

         least -25°C (-13°F), well branched, nice leaves and reliably floriferous with a
         colour, seldom seen on a plant of such hardiness.

         Not to be confused with either azalea 'Debutante' or registered rhododendron 'Debutante'
         which is  a synonym for 'White Mustang', (R. calophytum x Goldsworth Yellow).
        *2. Murcott Yellow Hybrid =
         {{ (Hardgrove's Deepest Yellow x Phipps Yellow) x
         {(Scintillation x Inamorata) x [(R. wardii x R. dichroanthum) x R. fortunei]*3} }}   X  Phipps Yellow
        *3. Mr. Murcott writes: "Don Hardgrove had and used hardy fortunei frequently as a seed parent.  I didn't
	  think that wardii x dichroanthum would be hardy even in Don's protected garden.  Don did have in his
	  notes something about a fine example of wardii x dichroanthum growing on the West Coast.
	  I suspect that the cross is reversed and that hardy fortunei was the seed parent."

 662.  Not a seed lot #; used for Internet formatting.
       Mr. Clark tried to collect species from the highest altitude.  Temperatures ranged
       between +23°C. in the daytime and -15 °C. over-night. At first light in morning he
       relayed that it was the first time he saw rhodies in the wild with their leaves
       curled; also, due to heat stress leaves curled at mid-day. Overall growing conditions
       were very hard.
