CAMELLIA JAPONICA 
Presenting a grand array of color in the bleak and other- 
wise blossomless winter, Camellia gaponica, “Aristocrat of 
the South,” is gaining rapid favor in other sections of the 
country. Tts beauty and importance has been definitely 
recognized on the West coast, and favorable comments 
from the Northern florists continue to Increase. 
Camellia culture presents no particular difficulties, but 
special care will be rewarded with beautiful, Iasting blos- 
soms. First, they must have a soil that Is acid In reaction, 
and if this condition ts not already present it may easily be 
obtained by addition of leaf-mold, peat-moss and applica- 
tions of aluminum sulphate—one-quarter pound to a 
square yard. 
Keep soil moist, yet not soggy. Camellias are shallow 
rooted and deep cultivation is not advisable. Full sun, only 
after plants are two or more years old, is advisable for best 
bloom-buds. Partial shade (no afternoon sun) gives more 
growth and a glossier green color. 
Camellias may be fertilized with a mixture of cotton-seed 
meal, super-phosphate, potash, and well-rotted manure in 
the respective parts of 10-2-1-5. Aluminum sulphate should 
be added one-half part if soil needs acidifying. 
The few diseases and insects attacking the Camellia may 
be controlled easily. Camellia or tea scale, the most com- 
mon, may be eliminated by use of Florida Volek—1 part to 
50 parts of water. Spraying should be done in the early 
morning or late afternoon, to prevent leaf-scalding. To 
protect the valued bloom- buds, do not spray in the winter. 
Our Camellias have a beautiful color (many of them hav- 
ing been shaded) and are full of fine bloom-buds. Since 
there is a ltmited supply, you will do well to place your or- 
der early to get the varieties and number you want.
