Collected by editorial for use in an April 2002 issue of the Burnaby NewsLeader
Caption from metadata for 535-2329-1: "Norbert Wuensche checks one of the many varieties of rhododendron growing around his home in North Burnaby. He's been an avid hobbyist of the flower for more than 20 years, and many of the hybrids in his garden are his own creation."
Caption from metadata for 535-2329-2: "Norbert Wuensche checks the stigma of one of his rhododendron blossoms. By cutting back the petals to discourage bees from cross-pollenating his flowers, then carefully collecting the pollen and mixing it with pollen from other varieties, he's able to create his own rhododendron hybrids."
Caption from metadata for 535-2329-3: "Young plants that are the result of his breeding efforts are raised in his tiny greenhouse until they're strong enough to be planted outdoors."
Caption from metadata for 535-2329-4: "Norbert Wuensche stands in his back garden, which he's built into a showcase for many varieties of rhododendron, some of which he's developed himself."
