is an outstanding Camellia. Flowers are very 
large and very dark red and resemble in color 
Mrs. Charles Cobb and in form the Victor 
Emmanuel. The edges of the petals are 
crimped and are of a much deeper shade than 
the balance of the flower. The few flowers 
that we have exhibited have attracted a 
great deal of attention. 
White Datkagura. We imported this variety 
from Japan under this name but in our 
opinion it is incorrect. It does not bloom 
early and has no resemblance to regular 
Daikagura. The leaves are round, heavy and 
deep green. The flowers somewhat resemble 
Alba Superba but are superior. We have not 
observed it long enough to know its charac- 
teristics. 
Nagasaki Special. This is a Nagasaki with 
unusually beautiful flowers and in our 
opinion is far more beautiful than the regu- 
lar Nagasaki. The distinctive feature about 
the coloring of this flower is the beautiful 
marbling of the petals and petaloids. 
Rasen Zome. This is a beautiful Camellia 
which we imported from Japan before the 
war. The leaves are dark green, heavily 
veined and frequently variegated. The 
flowers are a very beautiful unusual light 
pink resembling in form and size the Eugene 
Lizze. Both the flowers and foliage are 
beautiful. We think it is one of the new 
varieties that is well worth having. 
September Morn (Yohei Haku). We gave this 
Japanese variety the name of September 
Morn because, in our opinion, it suits the 
flowers. It is one of the earliest bloomers, 
generally blooming the first part of Septem- 
ber and continues to bloom until about 
Christmas time. The flowers vary. Some 
are very outstanding and beautiful. The 
form of the flowers usually resemble that of 
the Chandleri Elegans. The outer petals are 
large and frequently very beautifully tinted 
with a baby pink blush. The petaloids are 
generally creamy yellow which is the nearest 
of any Camellia to yellow. It is a good 
grower. Because it is an early bloomer and 
has some of the most unusual and beautiful 
flowers of any white Camellia, in our 
opinion, it will always be rated as one of the 
finest.
