Notes Hugh Charles Noel was a gold prospector in Rhodesia and he also worked at Parker Wood and Company Limited in Durban, Natal, South Africa and retired June 1915. Hugh brought the seeds of the Weeping Bottlebrush Tree (Callistemon viminalis) that he collected on a visit to the Zimbabwe ruins. His son, Edgar and Ida had Woodside Nurseries and they grew the seed and sold plants to Carters in Pietermaritzburg and other nurseries from there the trees spread throughout the country. After Edgar's death, Ida and the girls used to pick Azaleas three times a week using ladders to pick the long stemmed blooms and they had to be bunched and tied with raffia. The Azaleas they grew used to decorate the stage at the Playhouse Theatre in Durban.
