CHARLESTON, S. C. 

Mrs. Freeman Weiss—(Our seedling) This flower created a 
sensation at the 1944 Sand Hills Garden Club Camellia Exhibit 
where it was seen on exhibition for the first time. It is a semi- 
double pink of loose construction with wavy petals and petaloids 
mixed with its stamens. Foliage is light green in color. 
Grafts: 12-157) 15-18" 
Reticulata—Huge purplish rose flowers, 5 to 7 inches in diam- 
eter, blooming late in the season. This variety has probably the larg- 
est flowers of any camellia. Not recommended for colder climate 
unless in greenhouse. 
Grafts: 12-15”, 15-18”, 18-24” 
Ville de Nantes—The most talked-about camellia in America 
today. This flower is probably a Donckelaari sport, having prac- 
tically the identical foliage, growth habits, and coloring. How- 
ever, this camellia is more irregular, and has wavy fimbriated petals. 
Truly a magnificent camellia. 
Grafts: 12-15”, 15-18” 
Lawrence Walker—First offering of this new distinctive seed- 
ling from the home of Mr. L. A. Walker in Summerville. A large 
loose peony red, hemispherical in shape, with stamens. We have 
seen it bloom three seasons, so can recommend it highly for the 
finer collections. 
Grafts: 12-15”, 15-18”, 18-24”, 24-30”
