A visit to our beautiful display grounds will reveal many more beautiful varieties 
of Camellias, of which we have many other sizes, but in quantities of each too lim- 
ited to list here. Write or ask for prices. 
Camellias are not difficult to grow, succeeding everywhere on the Pacific Coast 
except in desert and high mountain regions. 
Plant them as ornamental flowering 
shrubs in shade or semi-shade, using plenty of leaf mold or peat in the soil. 
Do not plant Camellias too deep. Never should the stem be covered deeper than 
it was in the container or ball in which it was received. With good drainage and 
plenty of water during the summer, success is assured. 
Lovely flowers, to use in bowls, or for corsages, will be produced even on small 
plants.
