Delbert Brim was a prolific North Carolina hybridizer from the Mount Airy area. A longtime milkman, he sold rhododendrons and azaleas directly from his milk truck along his delivery route and from his property, where he maintained four growing houses. Stan has previously written two articles about Delbert for the Journal of the American Rhododendron Society (JARS), including this one:
