Lorqe Rhododendron
Group, Tree Peonies
Given to Arboretum

A gift collection of 1877 n.y.
brid rhododendrons and 40
shrublike tree peonies has been
presented to the National Ar
boretum.
Planting of the rhododen-
drons has been completed, and
ground Is being prepared for
the peonies.
The plants were donated by
William T. Gotelli Of South
Orange, N. ]. Mr.. Gotelli
maintains a specialized arobre-
tum that Is well-known for its
collections of rhododendrons
azaleaS, tree peonies, and
dwarf evergreens.
The rhodod endrons are the
largest single gift Of this flow
ering shrub received by the Ma
tional Arboretum. The collec-
ton contains specimens OF
standard and unusual varieties
= ranging from dwarf and
low-growing plants to speci-
mems already six feet tall. Bios
SONS include color shadings
from white through yellow and

tablished rhododendron collec-
ton on a woodland slope

MoIes Avoid
Euphorbiu Roots

A method used for many
years to control moles is the
planting Of Euphorbia lathyrus
in various parts of the garden.
1t is a hardy biennial and usu-
ally can be depended upon to
reseed itself. 1t grows to about
2 feet in height and has long,
narrow, blue-green leaves which
are symmetrically arranged.
This Euphorbia has been
highly recommended as a re-
pellant, and it is stated that
moles will not go within so
feet Of it. The roots repeatedly
give off a toxic secretion. The
plant is decorative and it may
be planted among many kinds
Of plants.
Gardeners may have diff
ficulty in finding seed of this
biennial because it reseeds it
self so freely that seedsmen do
not find the demand great
enough to pay to stock it.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1961-10-29

and display labels are posted
so visitors can identify the Go
tell planting. The rhododen-
drons are expected to reach a
peak display of blooms during
the later half of May.
The gift collection of tree
peonies, which flower a little
earlier than rhododendrons,
will be planted with the Arbo-
returns group of lockwood, day
lilies, and peonies.
Plant collections at the Ma
tional Arboretum are main
tanned by USDA's Agricultural
Research Service for botanical
and horticultural studies. De-
tailed records are kept Of all
collections, and individual
plants are labeled for identifi-
cation.
The Arboretum has become
widely recognized as an impor-
tant national center for the
study of many types Of orna-
mental and woody plants in
their natural setting.

What Of the specific programs to carry out these
broad detectives? /
Production men in industry refer to a socalled :
lead time that is necessary before articles can start 6
coming off the assembly line. :
Similarly in government and legislative work, as
you we'll know, there is a minimum Of time required to
develop specific programs and specific Legislation.
Let our eyes be lifted to the Heavens, but let us
keep our feet on the ground.
The calendar, unfortunately, presents us with pro- 5
bems.
In view of the mere handful of days since my inau- :
%guration, the delcacy and Importance of my task in I
stating a new Administration, the need for solid think !
ing on specific programs, it seems likely to me that we 7
will have to meet again in special session some time .
later this year. z
In the sixty days ahead the Legislature will be call !
ed upon to consider, among other things, the following /
groups Of matters which have priority status. 9
First, there will be matters to be brought to the y
attention of the Congress. It seems desirable, for exam Q
pie, for this Legislature to adopt a formal resolution z
concerning the proposed reduction OF exemption from 4
United States custom duty for returning tourists. Sub
missions have already been made by this Legislatures /.
able Washington representative, acting in conjunction 4
with counsel for the trade association, but this should )
be fortified by formal action Of the Legislature.
A second category will include appropriations and
other legislation which is necessary for the operation !,
Of the Government. 8
Finally, / hope to make suggestions to the Legis- 3
lature as soon as possible after the Carnival recess Of /
certain matters that consider Of primary urgency from
the point Of view Of legislative program.
Let me refer to four of these matters. The firts re- Y
lates to middle income housing. The need is clear. Ihave Il
in mind Virgin Islands Housing Administration which 3
can do for the Virgin Islands at least q part of what the
Federal Housing Administration has achieved for the
continental United States. Such a program would pro
badly embrace the principles Of Government guarantee, Z
against default Of mortgages on approved middle in-l
come housing meeting Government Specifications.

Beauty FLOWERS
Apple Blossoms Scent the Air
By MRS. HERBERT H. 6REeER

Each spring when the apple
trees show rosy clouds of bios
SONS I feel the need of a magic
carpet. I would like to go and
see the forests Of apple trees in
bloom, sit still in this heavenly
realm and listen to the hum of
the millions of honeybeeS that
surely live there pumping sweet
honey. Now this sounds like an
impossible place that is no
where to be found, but, the an
cestor of our apple tree is ma
tive to the area Of cool noun
tains which lie between the
Black Sea and the Caspian Sea.
There are real forests of them,
not prosperous pruned or
ChardS, but forests.
So far, no magic carpet. But
there is the old beautiful apple
tree which I am sure is in need
Of pruning. 1t takes such a lit
tie bit Of this blossom wealth
and the joy Of having it in the
house is so great that 1 recon-
mend it to all. Don't miss it.
Any large size container will
be nice, as long as it provides
for plenty Of water. Now I must
confess that I have treated my
self to a new container. I
bought it when, on a recent
trip. 1 visited the glass center
at Corning, N. Y.
You will understand that I
must at once try out this new
container. 1t also goes along in
some way with my dream of the
blooming forest. The APPLE
blossoms look indeed as if they
enjoyed being arranged in this
new heavy, luminous and trans
lucent bubble Of clear glass.
The bottom is rounded and
so it must rest on a wood or
cork ring. This allows me to
change the position of the
opening at will. I placed it so
that the round opening faces
forward and upward. When I
cut the branches, I was care
ful to choose those with many
pink buds since I wanted to en-
joy their opening.
All the flowers that were fad
ed as well as some of the many
leaves were trimmed.
Then the strongest branch
was put onto the holder, with
a Junior branch joining it on
the same side.
While these two rise light
and airy from the opening, they
stand close together on the

other.
The next branches are short
er, more twiggy and also full
of bloom. They reach forward
and out Of the opening toward
the left and center, and divert
the eye from the nailholder.
Nice things always happen.
I am sure you can see how the
roundness of the glass is re-
peated by a charming twig
which is almost in the center
Of the arrangement. This little
curved branch points out a per-
feet spot for the old gnarled
root, and as I step back to
look at my arrangement, I find
I have now created a little
