Camellia Saraugua 
HESE handsome flowering evergreens offer a wonderful opportunity to nursery- 
men all over the South. They grow and do well in sections where Camellia ja- 
ponica is a failure, and can be used for screens and hedging, trimmed or otherwise, 
while the individual plants make fine specimens. 
Nurserymen in the vicinity of Fort Worth, Memphis, Birmingham, Atlanta, and 
all up the Atlantic coast-line and most of the Pacific Coast will be doing their clients 
a great service and will be well repaid for lining out some of our liners of Sasanqua. 
They make a much better showing than ordinary broad-leaved evergreens and shrubs, 
even when not in bloom, and when they come into flower they will add distinction 
to any garden. 
We have heard reports from certain sections of the country where Camellia japonica 
does not do so well, that grafting on Camellia Sasanqua enabled these nurserymen to 
grow many varieties of japonica. This was not where the temperature prevented the 
growing of japonica, however. We do know that most Sasanquas will stand more 
abuse than any japonica. We have seen them grow in wet ground where japonica 
would not grow. We are using more and more Camellia Sasanqua for understock each 
year. The demand for it as understock has increased considerably in the last few years, 
almost depleting the supply of sizes suitable for landscape use. We advise you to cover 
your needs on this item as early as possible.
