| These rhododendrons are unknown to us. Some of them were
identified in the early 1990's by rhododendron enthusiasts, but over time
plant labels have a habit of disappearing. Other plants were never named,
since they were hybrids created by Ed Dunn and/or his friends. Out of a
thousand seedlings, only one plant might be worth naming. What to do with
the other nine hundred and ninety nine? Well, plant some of them out and
enjoy them. We hope in 2003 to get a better labeling system in the garden,
but that will depend on fundraising since the brass labels we want cost
a dollar apiece. If you come to the gardens, enjoy the rhododendrons, but
realize that a minority of them have a correct name attached.
