CAMELLIA JAPONICAS 
Camellias with advanced flower buds, should 
be kept in a very cool temperature, not more 
than 50 degrees. They prefer a well drained 
soil, with a slight acid reaction. Cottonseed 
meal, with acid phosphate, is good. Also rotted 
cow manure, muriate of potash, tankage and 
sulphate of ammonia, all of which are acid in 
reaction. There are very few diseases attack- 
ing Camellias. Sometimes, however, the fol- 
iage is attacked by scale. When this occurs, 
spray with Volck, 1-50 and be sure to spray 
underside of the leaves. Their use as cut 
flowers is increasing steadily, and due to the 
heavy demand, we ask our customers placing 
large orders to do so early before they are sold 
out.
