CAMELLIA JAPONICA 
Horticultural names of Camellia Japonicas are 
60 badly confused that we are not still sure of many 
of them, but we have enough of kinds Which are 
recognized by leading nurserymen by such names- 
as we list, that we are offering these named Cam¬ 
ellias under three classes. 
We are fortunate possessor of Nouvelle Incono- 
graphae des Camellias, published in 1848-1860, with 
more than five hundred natural colored illustrations 
with names and we will follow their names as far 
as possible. 
Many names, however, will have to be revised 
yet, and in order not to mislead you, we are illus¬ 
trating several types of flowers and by referring to 
them, you can form better ideas of what we mean 
by “peony form”, “very double”, etc.
