All of the Camellias listed in the “Rare” and “Class A” groups are 
grafted on sturdy 7- to 12-year-old understock, which will grow a top plant 
2 to 4 feet tall in one season and will often bloom the first year. This 
vigorous growth will continue until the top is in balance with the root 
system, usually 4 to 6 years. Thus by grafting, you can have a fine large 
Camellia in 4 to 6 years, whereas on its own root system it would take 12 to 
15 years. Furthermore, grafted plants, due to their vigorous growth, are 
more resistant to disease. We are introducing forty varieties this year not 
carried in stock here in the past. 

We also carry a good variety of Kurume, Indica, and Hardy Japanese 
Azaleas. All Azaleas are profuse bloomers, and in the spring each plant is a 
solid mass of color. The season of blooming is very long, beginning in 
early winter and lasting until June. 
General Nursery Stock of many varieties is available at all times. We 
also maintain a complete landscaping service. 
We guarantee all of our plants to be well rooted and healthy when they 
leave the Nursery. We have no control over growing conditions after the 
plants leave the Nursery, and therefore cannot guarantee them to live. 
This depends on the knowledge and skill of the purchaser. 
Prices in this catalogue cancel all previous quotations and are subject 
to change without notice. Values are governed by the character of the 
individual specimen. Orders are accepted and filled in rotation, so if you 
desire the choicest plants place your orders early. 
If no instructions are received with orders to be shipped, we will pack 
and ship them in the manner we consider best. All plants are packed and 
delivered F.O.B. the carrier.
