MRS. K. SAWADA (JU. S. Patent #481) 



This beautiful camellia was named “Mrs. K. | 
Sawada” in memory of the late Mrs. K. Sawada. 
She devoted much of her time in helping the de- 
velopment of these new varieties. 
The flower is full double, gardenia-type, imbri- 
cated. It is 3 to 3% inches in diameter, consisting 
of 70 to 100 petals. Color is delicate pink, shaded 
on white. The flower resembles the flower of 
Lady Humes Blush somewhat, but is slightly larger 
in size, blooms heavily from February to March. 
The lasting quality as a cut flower is exceptionally 
good. The leaves are small, of finer texture, very 
vigorous, upright grower, very compact, with long, 
slender branches. Its resisting power against the 
freeze is very great. 
Many florists who have seen this flower agree 
that this is the most ideal Camellia flower for their 
corsage work.
