~ ne Camellias 
GROUP II 
Casablanca. Medium  rose-pink; formal, 
double. This Camellia opens over a long 
period and is beautiful in every stage. Its 
lasting qualities will make it a good cut-flower 
variety. 
Catherine Catheart. Medium size, double, 
light pink, marbled white. Large, round, light 
green foliage. A good grower and a_ fine 
Camellia. 
Debutante (Sara C. Hastie). Large, peony- 
form, light pink blooms; early. Fast grower 
with large, serrated leaves of dull green. Very 
desirable. 
Eleanor Haygood. Pale pink, almost blush- 
color, medium to large flower and when fully 
open has a few stamens. 
Emperor of Russia. Very large, deep scarlet, 
peony-form flower, with stamens intermixed. 
Large, dark green foliage. Excellent grower. 
Empress (Lady Clare; Grandiflora Rosea). 
Clear rose-pink, with two rows of petals and 
golden stamens. One of the largest, sometimes 
measuring 6 inches across. Dark green foliage; 
spreading growth. 
Firebrand. Large, scarlet-red, semi-double 
flower with rich golden stamens in center. 
Very upright growth, and one of the hardiest 
bloomers over a long period—starts early and 
blooms late. Cold doesn’t seem to damage 
the flower buds. 
Lady Van Sittart Variegated. Large, semi- 
double, red flower with white variegation. 
Small, narrow, pointed, dark green foliage. 
Lotus. Very large, pure white, semi-double. 
Long, narrow, light green leaves. One of the 
very best semi-double types, and one of the 
largest.

lia with large, dark green foliage. Flower is 
very large, of the Donckelari type, crimson- 
red mottled with white.

bloom, fading to almost white around edges of 
petals, with stamens intermixed. Large foliage, 
somewhat serrated.

red flowers turning purple as they age, and

grower with large, dark green foliage.
