CAMELLIAS 
Floral Gems from China 
It is difficult to write about Camellias, without using all our

of flowers, compel unquenchable ''Ah!'' ''Oh!'' "Ahs!”

floral gems. 
For sheer transcendent beauty, Camellias, in their numerous 
varieties represent the crowning glory of China's wealth of 
floriculture.

These jewel-like winter flowers of eye-intriguing beauty, will 
bring you the greatest thrills and enjoyment. Mere words can¬ 
not possibly convey the deep and enduring satisfaction you
