Obsession:
Isn't that what you'd call it when a scientist spends 30 years breeding more than 45,000 evergreen azaleas? In the 1920s, BY Morrison, later appointed first director of the US National Arboretum, pursued his dream to create the hardiest, largest flowered azaleas for the Washington DC area. His 454 hybrids, named Glenn Dale azaleas, are a living memorial to his passion and success. |
