* C.j. 27 exbnia Chandl. Ill The choice J. C, Chandler's choice-flowering Camellia. — Figured 



in Chandler's ///., t. 12.; described there ; whence the following traits are drawn. Of free 

 growth, resembling, in some respects, the waratah. Flowers of a deep rose colour, very 

 double, and 4 in. across. It also resembles C. j. imbric&ta ; but the foliage of the two

* C.j. 28 Wiltonx Chandl. III. Lady Wilton's J. C— Figured in Chandl. Ill.,t. 13., and described 



there; where it is stated that it is a desirable well-rrarked variety, and distinct from 

 either the double-striped, Parks's rose-striped, or the C. j Elphinstbni. Flowers 2 in. or 

 2£ in. across,similar to those of the double-striped. Raised from seed by Mr. Knight of the 

 Exotic Nursery, about 1814, probably from the single red, impregnated with the double-

* C.j. 29 Chdndleri Chandl. III., synon. " versicolor Bot. Beg., t. 887." (Swt, in his Hort. Brit. 



p. 74.) Chandler's J. C, Chandler's striped waratah C. — Figured in Chandl. III., t. 16., 

 Chandl. Cam. Brit.,t. 1 and 2., and Bot. Beg., t. 887. In Chandl. ///. it is stated of it, that it 

 approaches nearer to the waratah than to any other variety, and is one of the very best 

 which has been raised ; and that it was originated by Mr. Chandler, in the Vauxhall 

 Nursery, in 1819, from the seeds of the waratah, crossed with the double-striped. Price, 

 in London, Is. 6d. ; and at Bolwvller, 20 francs. 



* C.j. 30 fibre dlbo Chandl. 111. The white sing/e-floivered J. C — Figured in Chandl. ///., t. 17., 



and Bot. Beg., t. 353. In Chandl. ///. it is stated that it is more robust than almost any 

 other variety- It abounds in flowers, and these usually open earlier than those of most 

 other varieties; they are nearly 3 in. across, white, and not unfrequently striped or 

 spotted with red. It seeds freely, and some fine varieties, with double flowers, of differ- 

 ent colours, have been raised from it. It was raised from seed of the double-striped, by 

 Messrs. Rollisson of the Tooting Nursery, in about 1814. 

 «* C. j. 31 altJueccflbra Chandl. III. The Hollyhock- -florvered J. C. — Figured in Chandl. ///., 

 t. 20., and Chandl. Cam. Brit., t. 4. — blowers red. It is stated that it resembles the 

 waratah in some respects, and is well deserving of a place in every collection. Raised by 

 Mr. Chandler, from seed of the waratah, in 1819. Price, in London, 7s. 6d. ; and at 

 Bollwyller, 15 francs.

white Waratah C. — Figured in Chandl. III., t. 21., and Chandl. Cam. Brit, t. 8. This, 

 from the account of it in Chandl. III., is a most elegant variety, with blossoms of a deli- 

 cate white colour, a little striped ; occasionally spotted with pale red, from 3± in. to 4 

 in. over. It was raised from the pompone. Price, in London, 7s. 6d. ; and at Bollwyller,

* C. j. 33 IVoddsii Chandl. Woods's J. C. — Figured in Chandl. III., t. 23. A seedling, 



raised by Mr. Chandler, who named it in compliment to Mr. Woods of Camberwell 

 Grove, a great admirer of camellias. Its flowers are very handsome, symmetrically 

 formed, and nearly 4 in. across. Their colour is pale red, similar to those of the com- 

 mon Provence rose, which, at a distance, they resemble, except in being larger, although 

 not so double. {Chandl. III., adapted.) Price, in London, 7s. 6d. ; and at Bollwyller 50 

 francs. 



* C. j. 34 punctata Chandl. 111. The dotted-fiowered J. C, Gray's invincible C. — Figured

 blossoms are from 3 in. to 4 in. over ; of a very delicate blush colour, almost white ; 

 striped, and slightly spotted with pale rose, in the manner of a rose-flake carnation. An 

 extremely fine variety. It was raised, in 1824, by Mr. Press, gardener to E. Gray, Esq.,

 pollen of the single white 

 H C. j. 35 e'legans Chandl. 111. Chandler's elegant J. C— Figured in Chandl. ///., t. 26. Of free 

 growth; the flowers of a very delicate rose colour, and from 3J in. to 4 in. across; in 

 form between those of the waratah and those of the pasony-flowered, but, in other 

 respects, distinct from those of both varieties. Raised from seed of the waratah, by Mr. 

 Chandler, about 1822. 



* C. j. 36fl6rida Chandl. 111. The flowery J. C, the cluster-flowering C. — Figured in 



Chandl. IV. , t. 28., and in Chandl. Cam. Brit, t. 7. The flowers are not large, but very 

 beautiful ; 3 in. in diameter ; of a deep rose colour, intermediate between the deep red 

 of the waratah and the bright rose of the paeony-flowered. They are produced in great 

 abundance at the extremity of the branches, and open pretty early in the season. This 

 variety was produced in 1819, from seed of the waratah, from a flower that had been fer- 

 tilised with the pollen of the paaony-flowered. Price, in London, 7s. 6d ; and at Bollwyl- 

 ler, 15 francs. 



II C. j. 31 rosea Chandl. 111. Middlemist's rosy-coloured- flowered J. C, Middlemist's red C. — 

 Figured in Chandl. III., t. 29. The flowers open late, and are of a rich rose colour; more 

 than semidouble, and 3 in. or more across. The stamens are sometimes perfect, but 

 oftener transformed into small petals ; so that the flower altogether resembles that of a 

 full-blown rose. 



m. C. j. 38 eclipsis Chandl. 111. Press's eclipse J. C. — Figured in Chandl. III., t. 30. The fol-

 white, which is striped and feathered with pale red, in the manner of a flake carnation. 

 One of the very fine varieties originated by Mr. Press, and noticed in Gard. Mag., vol. ii. 

 p. 358. Both C. j. eclipsis and C. j. punctata were raised from seeds contained in one 

 capsule. Price, in London, 7s. 6d. ; and at Bollwyller, 100 francs.
