Rhododendron
Are Now Blooming
ASHEVILLE ? The first pur
ple rhododendron blossoms are
now showing at the fabulous
Craggy Rhododendron Gardens
between this mountain resort
and Mt. Mitchell. Park Rangers
report that peak blooming will
be displayed on this 600- acre na
tural rhododendron garden from
June 10 through 20. Reports are
that an unusual variation in the
size of buds this year indicate a
longer blooming season.
Craggy Garden spreads out ov
er an entire mountainside along
the Blue Ridge Parkway and has
the most spectacular display of
the showy rhododendron to be
found anywhere. Roan Moun
tain, bordering Tennessee and
North Carolina, has nearly as
great a display of this mountain
flower.
Flame azalea will be at its
showiest in the Craggy area
from June 8 through June 15.
Visitors to the Craggles and Mt.
Mitchell may see the greatest
early * summer foliage at this
time of both rhododendron and
flame azalea.
The beautiful but less spectac
ular white rhododendron begins
its show a little later than . the
purple variety. Peak blooming
is expected a week later in the
Mt. Mitchell area.
Peaks and quality of blosoms
vary from year to year, accord
ing to weather and not always to
plant cycles. Generally speaking,
however, the maximum display
including the three showiest
flowers of Western North Caroli
na, which are purple rhododen
dron, flame azalea and moun
tain laurel, can :be seen between
June 10 through June 20.
