The Camellia is the handsomest of all the broad- 
leaved evergreen blooming plants for southern gardens. 
It is long-lived and its beauty and monetary value 
Increases rapidly as the plants grow older. The many 
new and fine varieties of recent introduction have 
added enormously to its popularity, and its use as a 
high-class cut-flower has opened up a much broader 
field for its distribution. 
On the following pages we are listing a complete 
range of sizes, from very small plants suitable for 
growing on under Iath or in greenhouses, to finished, 
well-rounded specimens for immediate landscape effects. 
Contrary to popular belief, Camellias in SMALL and MEDIUM 
sizes can be handled safely and satisfactorily BARE-ROOTED, 
like cther broad-leaved evergreens. For this reason and also be- 
cause of the acute labor shortage, we have discontinued potting 
any size Camellias until conditicns again become normal. We 
have been moving Camellias bare-root for years, to our own lath- 
houses and fields and to many of our customers in distant states 
with most gratifying results. Substantial savings are effected not 
only in the cost of the plants themselves but in transportation, 
labor, and packing materials as well. We recommend this method 
for the sizes indicated in the bare-root column, especially during 
the present critical period of war-time shortages. Specimen plants 
however, should be dug B&B.
