HODGES HARRELL NURSERY 
RARE CAMELLIAS 
The varieties here listed are highly regarded by experts and are 
scarce. No nursery has them in abundance. Some of them are new 
and all of them are in such demand as to prevent accumulation in 
quantity. 
WHITE 
LIBERTY BELL—Pure white, peony-like flower, 4 to 5 inches 
in diameter. It blooms very freely, starting early and continuing to 
late mid-season. It is a vigorous, upright grower, making a splendid 
shrub. 
WHITE CRANE (Haku Tsuru)—A very fine white shaped like 
Victor Emanuel and as large. Large, light green leaves. A tall open 
grower but vigorous and hardy. 
PINK 
CREPE ROSETTE—Semi-peony type beautiful pink. Petals stand 
apart and are shaded white at margins. Few stamen. Foliage light 
green. Rounded growth, vigorous, symmetrical and medium height. 
Blooms from early to late midseason. 
CHALICE—A new Camellia which bids fair to become very 
popular. A beautiful shade of soft baby pink. Medium size flower 
semi-double stiff, crinkled petals that last well. Dull green foliage. The 
variety is new and its growth characteristics are not known. A mid- 
season bloomer. 
JOSEPHINE HEARN—A new variety from Magnolia Garden. 
Very large, pink, semi-double flower. Said to be very fine. 
LADY CHARLOTTE—Large, semi-double, light, soft pink 
flower, loosely formed with wavy petals showing yellow stamen. Foliage 
dark green and pointed. Tall, strong grower, forming a beautiful shrub 
as it matures. Highly regarded by its originator, Magnolia Gardens. 
Midseason bloomer. 
PRINCESS IRENE—This is another new variety from Mag- 
nolia Garden. The flower is immense and lovely soft pink semi-double 
with wavy petals. The flower we saw was some 6 inches in diameter. 
The foliage is good, a dull green. It is too new for us to have ob- 
served its growth characteristics. 
ROSEA SUPERBA—A very large, full double and imbricated 
bloom, soft, light pink, often 6 inches in diameter. A very free 
bloomer from early to late season. Foliage large, dull green. Growth 
is symmetrical, upright and vigorous, making a dense, shapely shrub. 
We regard this variety as the best pink Camellia. 
ROSE MALLOW—Semi-double very large flower frequently 5 to 
6 inches in diameter. Soft pink. Blooms late midseason. Very large 
dark green leaves rounded. Strong grower and makes a handsome 
shrub. One of the best.
