HERME 
Sarah Frost Garell: 
This is deservedly one of the most popular of the deep 
pink varieties. The flowers are of good size, at least 
3 inches in diameter, with many flowers half an inch 
larger. It is very double, having up to 120 petals, the 
outside ones drooping slightly toward the stem. The 
color is a rich deep pink,—a deep cerise-pink in some 
soils,—a color which shows up pleasingly against the 
lovely foliage of the plant. ‘It is usually at its best during 
January.

Herme Camellia 
This spectacular flower is one of the most 
striking of the variegated group. The flowers 
are large; those from well-grown plants will 
average close to 4 inches in diameter, and a 
4-inch Camellia, especially when it is of the 
artistically loose peony type, is a bloom to 
attract attention anywhere at any time, and 
when to size and lovely form is added the 
unique coloring of Herme—red and pink 
stripes and markings over a white base—we 
have one of the gayest flowers in Southern 
gardens. And let us add, it is sweetly,scented 
and blooms best during January.

SARAH FROST 
Professor Sargent Camellia 
This fine Camellia was named for a great 
man, the late Charles S. Sargent who made 
the world-famous Arnold Arboretum at Bos- 
ton. The medium-sized flower is of the bomb 
peony type, globular, with an outer row of 
petals which droop, and over 200 folded and 
twisted short petals or petaloids. The color is 
red but varies somewhat with the pH of the 
soil, being sometimes clear crimson, at others 
light red, but regardless of the shade of red the 
effect is always pleasing. This is one of the 
hardiest varieties and one that does best in 
full sun. Its blooming period is from late fall 
until early spring.
