CAMELLIA JAPONICA welbankiana. 
Class. Order. 
MONADELPHIA POLYANDRIA. 
: This is a native of China, introduced 
several years since by Capt. Welbank, who 
brought it to the Garden of Charles H. 
Turner, Esq. of Rook’s-nest, Surrey. 
The branches are pecularly stiff and 
erect, the flowers not so large as the double 
white, but very delicate ; in form and tex- 
ture they are inclined to resemble those of 
the Gardenia Florida. It flowers at the 
same season as the other Camellias, and 
requires similar treatment: it is also in- 
creased by engrafting on the single red.
