WHITE GOLD MEDAL CAMELLIAS 
Dante. An imbricated pure white form with golden stamens at the base of each petal. This 
variety may be best described as of medium size, measuring 4 inches in diameter. A low, 
spreading grower with dull green foliage. Very fine. Own Root, 15’-18”. 
Eastern Sun. (One of our hybrids.) A full-formed, peony-type Camellia with 4-inch 
flowers having the outer rows of petals pure white and the inner portion of the bloom made 
up of lemon-tinted anthers and petaloids and golden stamens. We might say that there is 
more yellow in this Camellia than any we have ever seen. The deep green foliage is slightly 
twisted. Growth is slow and bushy; midseason flowering. Grafted, 15”-18”, 18”’-24”. 
Edith Churchwell. (One of our own hybrids.) An exquisite, wavy-petaled, loose peony- 
type flower measuring 3! to 4 inches in diameter. The plant is a slow, bushy grower and 
the dark green foliage is of medium size. Flowers in January. Own Root, 15”-18”. 
Ethrington White (Waterloo). The petals of this semi-double variety are often described 
as tissue-like in texture. Dark green foliage. Tall and vigorous in its growth; blooms in mid- 
season. Own Root, 15”-18”, 24”-30”, 30”-36”. 
Haku-rakuten (Refugee). An extraordinary 4-inch white blossom, loosely formed, with 
a few stamens intermingled with the petals. Light green, glossy foliage. Tall, vigorous 
grower. Grafted, 12”-15”, 15”-18”, 18”-24”. 
Imura. This hybrid from Alabama is the most beautiful white semi-double we have 
seen. Its long, narrow petals have a porcelain-like texture. The flowers measure 514 to 6 
inches in diameter; showy yellow stamens. Long dark green foliage. Open and upright in 
its growth; midseason bloomer. Own Root, 15”-18”, 18”-24”; Grafted, 12”-15”, 15”-18”, 18”-24”, 
24”-30”. 
Lotus, Sode Gutehie. The largest of all Camellias, measuring 6 inches or more in diameter, 
with a large cluster of stamens in the center. The long, dull green foliage is heavily ribbed. 
Midseason to late flowering. Own Root, 24”-80”"; Grafted, 24”, 30”, 36”. 
Mrs. William Thompson. A very large semi-double white flower, displaying prominent 
stamens. Large, rounded, serrated foliage. Vigorous slender growth; midseason. Own Root, 
15”-18”. 
Perfection Alba. Although this flower was purchased as Alba Superba it produces full 
double pure white blossoms, 3 to 4 inches in diameter. We consider this Camellia one of 
the finest double whites for late cut-flowers because it is a profuse bloomer. The foliage 
is large, light green, and glossy, and the compact, upright growth is decidedly vigorous. We 
are sure that this is a distinct variety because Alba Superba is semi-double with showy 
stamens. Midseason to late flowering. Own Root, 24”-30”, 30’-36”, 36”-40”; Grafted, 18”-24”. 
Snowdrift. A beautifully formed blossom, semi-double in structure. The long, dull green 
foliage is heavily serrated and the plant is a good grower. Blooms in midseason. Own Root, 
15 =Lo- 
Star of Bethlehem. (Our seedling.) A semi-double, pure white star formation of the 
Imura type; flowers measure 3 inches. Low, spreading, bushy growth and long, narrow, 
dark green foliage characterize this free-flowering variety. Where a low-growing, vigorous, 
hardy white Camellia is needed we recommend this variety whole-heartedly. Early to mid- 
season. Own Root, 18”-24”. 
Daisy Banks. Originating with me this seedling No. 200 was named in memory of Mrs. 
Jno. J. Banks of Opelika, Alabama. The large, pure white tissue like textured flowers vary 
in form from loosely peony semi-double to single with stamens intermingled or prominent. 
The flower is from 4 to 5 inches. Flowering midseason to late. Foliage dull green. Growth 
vigorous, spreading. Own Root, 24”-30"; Grafted, 36”, 40”, 48”.
