. Alpine Rose fulgens griffithianum maximum . . Rose Bay, or Great Laurel Metternichii , ponticum * . Pontic Rhododendron PRINCES among shrubs the Rhododendrons in their massiveness and grandeur hold unques- tioned their supremacy. Though they belong to the Heath family the Ericacece and have the heaths and the bilberry for British relatives, yet they are in a section of the family that is entirely foreign and quite unrepresented in our native flora. The first suggestion of a Rhododendron in th...is country lies in a vague statement that Peter Collinson of Mill Hill, the friend of Linnaeus, introduced from America about 1738 the beautiful Rose Bay or Great Laurel (R. Maxi- mum) ; from definite knowledge we know that this shrub grew and flowered in a Mile End nurseryman's garden in 1755. With the Rose Bay the Rhodo- 129 Beautiful Flowering Shrubs dendron made a happy entrance into Great Britain, for it is one of the finest species known, and may develop into a tree forty feet high. " When this most magnificent of our native shrubs covers whole mountain sides throughout the Alleghany region with bloom, one stands awed in the presence of such overwhelming beauty, " says an American writer.
