CAMELLIA JAPONICA 
Brief Cultural Hints 
~Soil—Camellia grows in almost any soil, but well drained, 
good garden soil a little acid in reaction is more suitable. 
Location—Half shady location is preferable, especially when 
~ the plants are young. F'ree blooming cannot be expected in 
a place entirely shaded. 
Transplanting—-The root system of the Camellia is rather 
course and not quite so easily transplanted as the Azalea. 
Fertilization—The Camellia is a gross feeder; it responds 
well to fertilization. At the time of planting, if the soil 
is not fertile enough, use a mixture of one-half of garden 
soil, one-fourth of well rotted cow manure and one-fourth 
of peat or leaf mould. Every winter or early spring apply 
well rotted cow manure; bone meal or cotton seed meal, or 
similar commercial fertilizer may be added if necessary. 
Mulching with half rotted leaves or peat is also beneficial. 
Watering—The Camellia loves a humid atmosphere. Do not 
neglect the watering. Frequent syringing on the leaves 
helps a great deal during the dry summer months. 
Pruning—Froper pruning is also essential. Prune with care 
such as water shoots, dead or injured branches and branches 
growing too close together. General pruning should be 
done in the month of Februrary ; otherwise it may have a 
bad effect on the flower buds. 
Spraying—Red spider and various scales may attack Camel- 
lias. We have been using “Volck, Jr.” or “Plorida Volek” at 
the ratio of 1 to 50, adding one to two teaspoonsful of 
Black Leaf 40 to every gallon of solution. Avoid, if possible, 
spraying in late Fall or during the winter as a severe freeze 
causes great damage to camellias if it hits right after 
spraying. This is especially true if cily material is used.
