VALUABLE FOR LANDSCAP- 
ING 
Today, no landscape planting 
in the coastal region, wheth- 
er for the small cottage, large 
estate, park, or public build- 
ing, is complete without AZA- 
LEAS and CAMELLIAS — a 
single specimen, group or mass, 
nothing adds more color to the 
landscape at their blooming 
period, or without flowers, they 
are a most attractive, low-grow- 
ing evergreen broadleaf shrub. 

Camellias are sometimes called the ‘‘Aristocrats of Southern Gardens.”

SPECIMEN CAMELLIAS AVAILABLE 
While we have listed below only the small and medium size Camellias 
which are growing in our fields, we do have many Larger Specimens in our 
Fields priced according to the Size and Variety. These plants are cultivated 
sprayed and can be dug BG&B for safe transplanting. The varieties vary from 
those listed here, to many rare types, and we recommend personal selection 
of these Specimens to fulfill your Landscape requirements. 

Prof. Sargent 
They are easily grown in the South, and their rich, 
glossy foliage and colorful flowers make them unusually attractive. There are so many named varieties, but not all are desirable. 
The flowers are produced during the mid-winter when no other flowers are found in the garden, bringing increased admiration 
for this plant. 
HOW TO GROW CAMELLIAS 
Camellias grow in almost any soil, but they should not be planted in soil containing a great deal of lime, or fertilized with a 
mixture containing lime. A well drained, good garden soil, a little acid in reaction is preferable. Half shady locations are suitable 
especially when the plants are young; free blooming can be expected in a place entirely shady. They love a humid atmosphere, 
and watering should not be neglected during hot, dry months. Frequent syringing of the leaves help a great deal.

A large Camellia, perhaps 50 years old, can be 
moved successfully and produce a hundred times as 
many flowers as a small one.

This is one of the most 
choice selections of the Cam- 
ellia family for use over a wide 
area. It has a broad pyramid 
habit of growth and very dark 
green rich foliage. The blooms 
develop early, sometimes in 
October and last over a long 
period thus making it most 
desirable. The flowers are 
large, very solid, dark red 
peony form and_ withstand 
all weather conditions well on 
the bush. Excellent for cut 
flowers also.
