 Examples of seed wanted to the ARS exchange New 29th March 2007.





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.

 173.  R. occidentale (2406 X GGAK4).  Goal: good pink with yellow on all five petals.
 174.  R. occidentale (502 X 303).  Goal: improved picotee.
 175.  R. occidentale (502 X 502like). Goal: improved picotee.
 176.  R. occidentale [(502like X 247) X 502].  Goal: picotee with good yellow.
 177.  R. occidentale (28-1 X TT-yellow standard).  Goal: Double with much yellow.
 178.  R. occidentale [28-2 X (502like X 247)].  Goal:  Double with good yellow, with recessive picotee for future  hybridization.
 179.  R. occidentale (30 X TT-yellow standard).  Goal: Very much yellow on all petals.
 180.  R. occidentale [(30 X 247)06-1 X (30 X 247)06-2].  Goal: Very much yellow on all petals.
      Individual plants:
       3303 - good pink, vigorous, low, spreading growth habit.
       GGAK4 - best pink from wild. Tall plant.
       2406 - good pink, yellow on all five petals.
       502 - good picotee.  All picotees are reddish brown.
       502like -  best picotee.  Not as strong a grower as 502.
       247- Very good yellow on top three petals. Britt Smith crossed this with 30
         with the aim of a solid yellow flower.
         His F2 crosses are substantial improvements on the F1 crosses, which had
         much more yellow than either parent.
       28-1, 28-2 -doubles. Often not all flowers are double.
       30.  Good yellow with yellow on all five petals.
         TT-yellow  standard. Very deep yellow standard with yellow on adjacent
         petals. Tom Tatum found this at Stagecoach Hill.
       (502like X 247). This plant was used as a parent because it has good
         yellow. It is likely that Britt Smith is correct
         and picotee is recessive.  In that case, all progeny should have one
         recessive gene for picotee.
       (30 X 247)06-1, (30 X 247)06-2.  First generation crosses toward producing
        all yellow flowers. These are Mr Oliver's best two plants that have bloomed so far.

R. lindleyii
  x R. nuttallii   White Flowers.  This is the most fragrant rhododendron,
  and has the best smell.  The plant
  labeled as Mi Amor (from Monte Toyon) is one of the original Mi Amors that is
  at the Sumner’s Monte Toyon garden in Aptos.
  There is about 10 - 12 plants of Mi Amor growing in a grove at Monte
  Toyon.   Mr. McCullough has used some
  of the plants at Monte Toyon as seed parents, and has used the pollen from
  Monte Toyon Mi Amors as the pollen parent.

         Williamsburg County, SC. Mr. Creel moved this  plant from a spreading colonial
	 plant located in an area between the two dirt roads on his family farm. The
	 location is midway between a population of canescens near the swamp and a stand
	 of periclymenoides uphill in drier hickory woods behind a large field. The plant's
	 medium height and bloom time are between the two species. It is a showier  plant
	 than either species alone and produces heavy seed (probably selfed as Mr.Creel sees
	 in other two-way hybrids) every year. Mr.Creel counted  many branches having
	 clusters of 16 or more pods clustered together from  usually a single flower bud.
	 It can form a heavy truss of flowers from a single bud.  Mr. Creel has not  counted
         individual flowers from a bud at bloom but it may be as many as another similar
	 hybrid from the farm that Mr. Creel calls 'Pink24', because he has counted 24
	 flowers in one bud cluster several times on that plant.
        *15. In eastmanii's natural habitat it is  cooled by the shade of tall deciduous
         trees and steep slopes. The fragrance is outstanding, different from the other
	 species and carries like tea olive.

          was grown from Am. Rho. Soc. Seed Exchange seed, 1982-1270. Dr. Schroeder of Evansville
          Indiana contributed the seed.  Mr. Cavender has several nice plants from this seed. One
          is as good a red as "Ostbo Red'. It holds it's color when the flower opens as well.

        *1. Pascagoula River Wildlife Mgmt. Area, Jackson county, Mississippi
        *2 .This plant, though no longer co-located with the above swarm, was once a part of it.
         It was saved, as were several other superior austrinum plants, by an elderly couple,
	 40 years ago, from destruction by an agricultural endeavor which destroyed about ½ of
	 the original plants.  Their homestead is a mile away from the other plants, not co-
         located with any native hybrids, and blooms later than most of the other austrinum
         plants, as do most other orange austrinums.  Mr. Milner has asked her to name three
	 of them.  This is her favorite.

Alan J. Clark, 2006
Expedition to North West Vietnam
      572. Not a seed lot #; used for Internet formatting.  Mr. Clark relates that altitudes in this
      area of Vietnam can be compared for cold to altitudes that are 1000 meters higher for areas
      to the north in China -- he has collected here in past and has found rhododendrons from here
      hardier than expected including a vireya that has withstood frost that damaged R. augustinii.
      Also, R. protistum collected was from a cream with red center -- not the usual magenta
      colored form and upon germination seedlings from this collection are growing at a faster pace
      than what is usually the case found with large leaved rhododendrons. Team Members.

Alan J. Clark
2004 Expedition to N.E. India
 627.  Not a seed lot #; used for Internet formatting.  The following
       Rhododendron seeds were collected during a 2004 Expedition to N.E. India. They have been
       stored in 'deep freeze' by Mr. Alan Clark and are offered as such. Mr. Clark relates that
       this is the best anyone can do and expects germination to be as well as when initially
       harvested. 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.
