MAGNOLIA GARDENS NURSERIES

GARDEN CLUBS 
We have a slide collection of some 125 camellias 
in full color which we will be glad to lend Garden 
Clubs or any other responsible group. They are 
mounted in the standard 2x2 mountings, so can be 
shown in most projectors. 
CALIFORNIANS 
Due to your quarantine restrictions only de- 
foliated camellias can be shipped into California. 
GRAFTED PLANTS 
Due to some influence in the understock beyond 
cur. control, occasionally a heretofore solid color 
variety will bloom variegated. We guarantee the 
scion as to variety, but if it blooms true or not is 
another matter. In every case reported, the varie- 
gated form has been far more desirable than the 
solid one. There are many theories as to this be- 
havior, but we have drawn no conclusions as to the 
cause. 
Our understocks were heavily root pruned be- 
fore grafting. When you receive one of our grafts, 
you will be sure to have every root which grew the 
top. 
Grafted camellias are graded according to their 
own merits. A straight stem graft will not be priced 
the same as a bushy one the same height but will 
be sold in a lower grade.
