A number of varieties of this very beautiful tree have been 
within thefe few years imported from China; no fewer than 
eleven are enumerated by Mr. Aiton, in the Hortus Kewenfis, 
viz. 1. The fingle red (vide N™ 42). 2. Semidouble red. 
3. Double red. 4. Middlemift’s red. 5. Myrtle-leaved red. 
6. Anemone -flowered, or Warrata’h. 7. Pzony-flowered. 
8. Double-ftriped. g. Blufh. 10. Buff. 11. Double white. 
To which lift, fome others may already be added, efpecially 
12. Snowdrop-flowered: faid to be white with the internal petals 
fhort and edged with green. 
Of all thefe varieties, the double white or Bourzon Ca- 
MELLIA is, in our opinion, by far the moft beautiful. Nothing 
can exceed in elegance a large tree of this kind, covered with 
beautiful fnow-white double bloffoms, embofomed amidft the — 
bright green fhining foliage; fuch as we remember to have feen 
pte delight two years ago at the Northampton Nurfery, Balls-

Our prefent variety, the ANEMONE-FLOWERED, is at once 
amongft the moft beautiful, fingular, and rare, Being of late
