Camellia Sasanqua, Mine-no-Yuki 
CAMELLIA SASANQUA 
One of the newer and finest of all the broad-leaved 
evergreens. Similar to Camellia japonica, but looser and 
faster growing. Very profuse bloomers, the flowers com- 
mencing to open the latter part of September and con- 
tinuing on through November—a time when very few 
flowers can be had. 
Sasanquas are very hardy and can be grown without 
protection in the latitude of Memphis, Tenn., Birmingham, 
Ala., Atlanta, Ga., Charlotte, N. C., and even much farther 
north along the Atlantic Seaboard. They are extremely 
satisfactory in landscape work, as individual specimens, in 
foundation plantings, and for hedges, and their popularity 
is only just beginning. From many thousands of seedling 
plants we have originated a few outstanding kinds which 
we offer in the following list, along with, and at the same 
prices as for the named varieties. 
CLEOPATRA. Large, beautiful cherry-red flowers, often 
double, and having crinkled petals. Foliage thick, dark 
and glossy. A vigorous and compact grower. Sizes 
tor toil. 
MINE-NO-YUKI (Snow on the Mountain). The large, 
double, white flowers resemble a carnation and are 
borne in such profusion as to literally cover the entire 
plant. When young, it is a loose, open grower, but as 
it gets older 1t develops into a symmetrically round 
and compact specimen. Sizes to 2 to 3 ft. 
NEGISHEKO. Flowers very large, single, deep pink and 
very showy. Strong, upright grower with dark glossy 
foliage. Sizes to 2 to 3 ft. 
ROSEA. A graceful and upright grower with very large 
single flowers of brilliant pink. Sizes to 3 to 4 ft. 

CAMELLIA SASANQUA (Seedlings). Seedling Sasanquas 
usually have single white flowers, but often have pink and 
red. They bloom very profusely in October and November. 
Fast growing and will make excellent hedges and also 
understocks on which to graft the more valuable Camellias.
