deeper the plant will die. In setting the plant 
in its new position, the ball should be level with 
the ground. 
In the past few years many growers in sections 
where camellias will not survive planted outside 
have become aware of the value of growing 
camellias in their greenhouses as a source of cut 
flowers for corsages, etc. These plants increase 
in value from year to year as they grow larger 
and cover more profusely with blooms. We 
think all growers would find it profitable to 
stock a part of their houses with the varieties 
of camellias that adapt themselves best to green- 
house culture, and make the nicest cut flowers, 
as the demand for them is growing each year. 
We have three greenhouses completely stocked 
with camellias, and have been growing them in 
our greenhouses ever since Flowerwood Nursery 
was established. It is not a difficult matter to 
grow them in the greenhouse, and if you should 
be interested in planting some camellias in your 
greenhouses, either directly in the ground, or 
growing them in pots or tubs, where they can 
be moved out in the summer, we shall be very 
glad to advise you of the varieties that we believe 
are best suited for this purpose, and also to give 
you whatever advice we can from our experience 
in growing these plants in the greenhouse. 
CAMELLIAS SHIPPED BARE-ROOTED 
We have none of the smaller sizes of camellias 
from 3-5 inches to 8-12 inches growing in pots 
this season, as our experience has been that 
these sizes can be handled to better advantage, 
both to the customer and to ourselves, when 
taken directly from the beds and shipped bare- 
rooted. All of these plants will be carefully and 
properly packed, and we do not hesitate to state 
that the plants, handled in this manner, arrive 
at their destination in good condition, and grow 
off into better plants than those which have 
been grown in pots, or have been potted up 
from beds. We also recommend that the larger 
sizes, from 12-18 inches to 2-3 feet, lath-grown 
plants, be taken bare-rooted, if it is at all pos- 
sible for the customer to do so. We realize, 
however, that many customers will need bur- 
lapped plants in these larger sizes to meet the 
special requirements of their trade. We are 
therefore listing two prices on each of these 
sizes. Where it is possible for our customers to 
take these sizes bare-rooted it will mean a sub- 
stantial saving to them, both in price and in 
transportation costs, and orders can be more 
quickly filled. We feel sure that our customers
