own specimens, which are grown in open ground. Our 
collection contains nearly 100 choice varieties, and the 
plants we offer comprise a great range of colors; also 
early and late-blooming varieties, with double and semi¬ 
double blooms.

Camellia Japonica. imported plants. 
Imported Camellias will be extremely scarce this year. 
Fortunately, we have a limited quantity from last year’s 
importation. These plants are in fine condition. We 
can supply red, pink, white, crimson and many beau¬ 
tiful variegated sorts. These Camellias are from reli¬ 
able European growers, but we cannot guarantee that 
every plant of the colored varieties will come true to 
label. We purchase under these conditions, and we

have to sell under the same conditions; furthermore, 
some of the varieties of variegated Camellias will fre¬ 
quently produce, on the same plant, white, variegated, 
pink or red blooms.

CULTIVATION OF CAMELLIAS. 
For Open Ground—A partially shaded situation, espe¬ 
cially where protected from the cold winds of winter, is 
most desirable. Any good garden soil is suitable, but 
if mixed with leaf-mold, better results will be obtained. 
Keep the plants thoroughly mulched with well-rotted 
leaves. The best time to transplant Camellias in this 
section is from early October to the middle of Novem¬ 
ber, and from the middle of February to the end of 
March. 
For Conservatories—Use a potting compost of peat 
or leaf-mold and good loam, and give ample drainage. 
When in growth, they require an abundance of water 
and spraying of the foliage. When dormant, water 
sparingly and keep in cool temperature. Fire heat is 
not needed except during excessively cold weather 
which would injure distending buds. Dropping of buds 
is caused by plants drying out, or by over-watering, or 
being kept in high temperature under glass.
