By Henry T. Skinner
Director, U. S. National Arborefvm


A new feature Of the United
States National Arboretum which
will be of lasting interest to
azalea growers is an extensive
garden especially designed to
display q permanent reference
collection of the Glenn Dale
hybrid azaleaS In their asa
clones, or named and vegeta-
lively propagated selections.
This azalea garden was de-
signed by B. Y. Morrison, who
retired last year as director Of
the United States National
Arboretum. In its completion,
therefore, the garden will stand
as a memorial to the lifetime
work Of Mr.. Morrison in produc-
ing this fine new race of azaleas
which. In thousands Of plants
already has become a familiar
sight on the color-massed slopes
Of Mount Hamilton, at the
Arboretum.
The new azalea garden, located
on the approach to the main
azalea paintings and near the
Arboretum entrance on M street
NE. at Maryland avenue. con-
sists of a large brick-walled
terrace approached from the
road through a lower-level
hexagonal-sided forecourt. The
mellowed red bricks used for
paving and walls came from an
old schoolhouSe which formerly
stood near r street on the
Arboretum property.
In the center of the main ter.
race. which is 200 feet by 70 feet
is a raised lily pool. Throughout
the area are "a beds, planted tc

well-labeled specimens Of the
400-odd azalea varieties. One
plant of a kind, except for a few
special color forms. is repeated
for their display effect. When
the landscaping is completed the
garden will be dotted with care
fully selected trees to provide
shade and additional flower in
terest. The surroundings will be
enriched with the use of ever
green magnolias. hollies, andro-
media and similar material for
background effect. The high,
brick retaining walls will provide
ideal situations for a museum
collection Of climbing vines
situations which are so often
unavailable in the average
arboretum.
While the Morrison azalea
clonal garden is an entity, COM
plete in itself. where the Glenn
Dale hybrids will be maintained
true to name for future display,
for study, comparison and scien-
tif1c reference use, it is antici-
pated, nevertheless, that this
may be the first unit of q group
of such museum garden areas in
which the products of all azalea
breeders may be assembled for
evaluation and study. A collec-
tion such as this should prove Of
immense value in Strengthening
the problems of plant names and
in providing a better under.
standing of this large and di-
verse aSsemblage of decorative
garden plants.

Pulverized Limestone

If soil to be used for grow
ing plants needs lining, use
pulverized limestone rather than
hydrated lime. To correct any
magnesium deficiency apply
dolomitic limestone. ..
Do not add fertilizer to the
soil just before starting seed
flats. Plants are likely to grow
too fast and spindling. Some
lime and fertilizer may be added
in making a soil compost, but do
it months before using to allow
time to take the burn" out of
the soil. ..

Low-growing flowers which
produce sheets of color can be
used effectively in door-yard
gardens, especially in the front
yards of modern one-story
homes. The simple lines and
absence Of ornamentation in the
house design find a pleasing echo
in simple floral paintings which
depend for their effect on color
masses rather than intricate de-
signs.
When front-yard flowers were
formerly In fashion. in the '90s.
flowers were used to work out
elaborate designs of geometric
shapes This was an ancient
fashion, dating back to the mid

II you have a sandy soil do not
add clay to it, but put in all the
humuS you can. Humus will do
for the soil everything that clay
will, without reducing the por-
osity Of the soil. which is a
precious quality.
