CED CAMEILILIIAS 
LOT 16 
“One Kenerutioii plants Camellias which 
many future grenerations enjoy." 
—Chinese Proverb. 
There is character and charm that retains fastidiousness 
and Oriental elegance in this informal variety of Camellia. 
Foj* the sake of accuracy, we do not offer it under a hor¬ 
ticultural name. In fact, we have been unable to find an 
authority for the many names it is sold to the trade by va¬ 
rious nurseries. 
‘For example, it is frequently offered as CHRISTMAS 
GLORY, ORIENTALA, ARAJISHI, HONNEUR de AMER- 
IQUE, ROSE EMERY, (sometimes spelled ROSE EMRY). 
We believe the last two names are corruptions of ROSE 
ANEMONE. 
Most likely ANEMONEOFLORA RUBRA was the name 
it was introduced to commerce, many years ago. It is easy 
to understand the reason a more simple name than the last 
one has been suggested. 
In spite of these aliases, it is a unique variety. Indivi¬ 
dual flowers vary in form and structure, all of which are 
worthwhile as florists’ cut flowers. 
The color of flowers can be changed from deep crimson 
to rose pink, by simple adjustment of acidity or alkalinity 
of soil in which they are grown. 
The parent plant, grown outdoors in a Southern garden, 
blooms freely from Christmas thru February, tolerating 
subfreezing weather with little injury to the flower buds.

Clyde, Ohio, Jan. 31, 1938.—"It may 
interest you to know my Longview 
Camellias have been in an unheated cold 
frame through zero weather, and the only 
ill-effect apparent is the retarding of 
bloom. They look healthy and are 
retaining all their buds.” Dr. E.J.S.
