C. myrtifolia, known in our collections as involuta. 

 There are two varieties of it, major and minor; the former is 

 certainly the best, and has a very handsome, large, and regular

 much the shape of double white, only the petals are more 

 cupped. The flower is of considerable duration. The foliage, 

 though small, is much larger than that of any of our common 

 myrtles, which might make many mistake its character; aud 

 another prominent feature is, the leaves are much recurved 

 and shining; plant pendulous, of a pale green. Magnificent. 



C. Madonna, very pure white, delicately striped with 

 bright rose; perfectly imbricated, and above medium size; 

 foliage dark shining green. Magnificent. 



C. Mrs. Abby Wilder, white striped with pink; a regularly 

 imbricated flower of fine formation; foliage large, coarse, 

 eickly green. Magnificent. 



C. Miss Percival, large flower, pure white, very fine when 

 in bud, not fully double; foliage dark shining green. Good. 

 When we have the pleasure of giving a Camellia this name, 

 it will be, in our estimation at lea&t, without a fault,
