LOT 110, NAME UNKNOWN 
A Louisiana Camellia connoiseur of note, brought us specimen 
flowers of this lovely variety back in January, 1931 from two old 
plants located in a Mississippi garden. 
The unusual form, the color variegations of rose pink and white,. 
large size and numerous petals, marked this as an outstanding 
Camellia. 
A prompt visit to personally inspect the parent plants while in 
flower was made and we bought both specimens. A year later, they 
were resold and shipped to an estate near Camden, South Caro- 
lina, where they were planted. 
Blossoms 4 inches and larger in diameter, varriable in structure, 
number of petals, color markings and form. Withstands low win- 
ter temperatures, opening buds with freedom. 
We have a limited number of unusually well branched specimen 
plants, offered for first time in 12 years since they were propagated. 
The reduced illustration on right does not reveal a typical flower 
or the true beauty of this fine Camellia.

* LOT 10, CHEERFUL 
Among cut flower growers of Camellias in the north, 
CHEERFUL is the accepted name of our Lot 10. 
A truly cheerful colored, full double, imbricated bril- 
liant pink, with petals of wax-like texture and echant- 
ing beauty. 
Flowers 2%4 to 3% inches across. Blooms freely, 
December thru March, producing a heavy crop of blos- 
soms. 
From catalogue descriptions and 
letters received from Camellia grow- 
ers In many sections of this country, 
there are at least four or five distinct 
varieties of Camellas sold under the 
name of CHEERFUL. Some varieties 
offered as CHEERFUL, are simple 
singles, others semi-doubles, double 
pink striped with white, while one 
is described as red, another peony 
form red, and to add to this confu- 
sion in variety names, a local nurse- 
ryman catalogue still another variety 
as CHEERFULNESS. 
; For corsage, hair decoration or bou- 
tonniere, this Camellia ranks as one of the best com- 
mercial varieties, because of its faultless beauty, purity 
ane briliancy of color, and long keeping qualities of 
ooms. 
_It is a valuable acquisition to the most select collec- 
tion of finer varieties. It should not be confused with 
inferior varieties sold elsewhere as CHEERFUL.
