MONA DELPHI A POL YA N DMA . 



This distinct species of Camellia is a 

 native of Napal: it was introduced, we 

 believe, by Mr. Brookes, in 1825. In 

 growth it is rather lax, with many long 

 branches, soon attaining the height of five 

 or six feet. It flowers during the autumnal 

 months, and requires protection in the same 

 manner as the other kinds. The blossoms 

 are less conspicuous than most of them. 



It is usually increased by engrafting upon 

 the single Camellia Japonica, which forms 

 a very suitable stock for it.
