No. 1897. 



CAMELLIA JAPONICA Chandleri. 



CIim. Order. 



MONA DELPHI A POl.Y \ \ Dlil A. 



An elegant variety, raised from seeds, by 

 Mr. Chandler, in 1819. It is a free flow- 

 ering sort, and the flowers vary a good deal 

 in the proportion of white, some having 

 very little, others more, and some quite 

 plain red. In some also it is sharply mark- 

 ed, while others are clouded, but on the 

 whole we consider it well deserving of cul- 

 tivation. 



Like the other kinds it requires the green- 

 house, in which it should be kept constant- 

 ly : it is increased by engrafting upon the 

 single stock.
