CAMELLIAS for WINTER COLOR 
ORE than any other group of plants, Camellias give color durmg the wmter when there is so little in bloom. 
Even before w nter sets in, Camel lia Sasanqua, in white and shades of pink, 
gives color in October and 
November. Then comes Alba Plena, Daikagura and a few other early varieties, followed by the main crop 
in January and early February, with late ones to top off the season, into Azalea time. 
Let’s keep our gardens of the Lower South different and distinctive by using colorful Camellias!

AZALEA and CAMELLIA FERTILIZER 
For maximum growth, bloom, and general well-being, it is necessary 
to feed your plants properly. Unfortunately for the Azalea and Camellia 
grower, most commercial fertilizers are made neutral by the use of 
lime-stone, and are not suitable for acid-loving plants. 
To meet this need we keep in stock Reliance Azalea and Camellia 
Special, a commercial fertilizer which is acid, easy to apply, and has no 
objectionable odor. It supplies a balanced and complete food for these 
plants. With your purchases you will receive a little booklet giving 
much information on the planting and care of Azaleas and Camellias. 
Prices of Reliance Azalea and Camellia Special Fertilizer. 5 Ibs.
