CULTURAL INFORMATION 
GRAFTED CAMELLIAS ARE SUPERIOR 
We can supply you with grafted Camellias in most all the 
Gold Medal Varieties. We use Camellia Seedlings and other 
fast-growing varieties. The understock used is from six to ten 
years old, we can offer these in 18"-24", 24"-30 ,/ and 3CV-36" 
one and two year old grafts. Grafted Camellias are more vig¬ 
orous than those grown on own root system, they flower in the 
second year; three to four year old grafted Camellia plants 
stand from three to five feet tall, well branched. 
Varieties that we can offer in grafted plants this season: 
Swada, Imura, Debutante, Mathotiana Rosea, Mathotiana Rubra, 
Victor Emanuel, Emperor of Russia, C. M. Hovey, Abundance, 
Empress (Donkaleri true stock), Snow Drift, Lady Clare, 
Princess Bachanachi, Bessie McArthur. 
Prices for grafted Camellias range from $7.50 to $20.00 each, 
except Donkaleri which we will quote you on request.
