This Supplement deals with all names registered during the period 1 January 2003 to 31 December 2017. The layout of each entry follows the format adopted in the 2004 Register and Checklist and is explained there in detail on pages 7-10 of the Introduction. It may however be helpful to repeat here that the following abbreviations are employed: (a) = azalea (az) = azaleodendron cv. = cultivar G = grown to first flower by… gp = Group H = hybridised by… I = introduced by… N = named by… (r) = rhododendron R = raised by… REG = registered by… S = selected by… (s) = seed parent (v) = vireya Wherever possible colour references are given to the RHS Colour Chart (1966, 1986, 1995 & 2001) with the colour description being taken from A contribution towards standardization of color names in horticulture, by R.D. Huse and K.L. Kelly (ed. D.H. Voss), 1984. All raisers and introducers of new rhododendrons are urged to ensure that the names of their plants have been registered and are reminded that registration needs to be effected before the plant is introduced or the name appears in print.
