FOR 1943-44 
In preparing this catalog it has been our aim to 
present to Camellia lovers an index to one of the larg- 
est collections of varieties in the United States, as well 
as one of the largest stocks. 
At the present time we are growing over 500 dif- 
ferent named varieties. Of many of these we do not 
have a sufficient stock to warrant listing in our catalog. 
We are always glad, however, to receive inquiries from 
Camellia enthusiasts for varieties not here listed. 
The current listing includes the varieties of which 
we have a sufficient stock to offer them with practic- 
ally no reservation. In our lath houses we have over 
50,000 Camellias which gives us considerable latitude 
in supplying any reasonable demand. 
We can usually fill your orders exactly, whether 
you order a dozen plants or a carload. Sometimes, 
however, there is an unanticipated demand for a given 
variety in a stated size. When these occasions arise, 
we either fill your order by giving you a plant of the 
variety ordered in the next larger size, or we omit the 
item from your shipment and make a refund to you. 
We do not substitute varieties unless you authorize us 
to do so, and then we prefer that you give us a second 
choice. 
While Lindo Camellias may not know that there 
is a war on, the management does. The labor short- 
age is quite as serious to us as in other fields of endea- 
vor, so to avoid disappointment, may we suggest that 
you place your orders early this season and instruct us 
to ship as early in the season as good judgment dictates.
