About Us

The Atlantic Rhododendron & Horticultural Society was registered as a non-profit society in 2003. With the late Don Craig and the late Captain Richard Steele as founding members, we began in 1976 as RSCAR, the Rhododendron Society of Canada Atlantic Region. We were one of the original three RSC regions,  the other two being Niagara and Toronto.  We continue to exist as the Atlantic Chapter of the American Rhododendron Society.  With Niagara and Toronto, we now form  District 12 in the ARS.
