CAMELLIA JAPONICAS 
Known in the South as the Japonica. We are growers 
and collectors of this most beautiful flower. We have now 
over 20,000 plants, and our collection comprises more than 
50 distinct varieties. Our Camellias for lining out are pot- 
grown, larger sizes are grown under slat houses, trans¬ 
planted once a year, those securing a fibrous root system, 
which renders them easy to transplant, superior roots. 
As most people understand that Camellia Names have 
not been standardized, it is practically impossible to know 
exactly that some of the names are correct, and for this 
reason we are still giving the best description of the blooms 
that we can write when plants are in bloom. 
Some outstanding varieties which are in a class by them¬ 
selves. 
We are indeed fortunate to have secured a limited num¬ 
ber of these beautiful Camellias, which are without doubt 
ihe most beautiful Camellias in the world today.
