GIGANTEA 
VARIETIES FROM THE NURSERY OF THE GUICHARD SISTERS 
AT NANTES, FRANCE 
We still have some of the varieties of Camellias propagated from the stock imported from the Camellia Nurs- 
eries of the Guichard Sisters at Nantes, France. We cannot vouch for the spelling of the variety names but pass 
them on to you exactly as they came to us. The French plants are designated by the letters GS to distinguish 
them from the plants grown on our own stock. 
RARE CAMELLIAS 
Adolphe Audusson. (GS.) A very large, semi-double flower of | Darsi. (GS.) 
deep red with distinctly darker veins. The long yellow stamens 
are in a cluster in the center and occasionally there are a few 
petaloids. The dark green leaves are thick, with serrated 
margins. 
Angela Cocchi. (GS.) Variegated, sparsely marked with car- 
mine stripes on flesh-pink, almost white ground. The blooms 
are medium size. This is one of our French importations and 
is very lovely. 
Aunt Jetty. This brilliant turkey-red Camellia is probably a 
solid red sport of Governor Mouton. Blooms are full double, 
irregular and usually appear from January through March. 
Hardy. Growth is slender and willowy in shade but sturdier 
in the sun. Truly a beauty. 
Comte de Gomer. (GS.) Imbricated flower with many rows of 
soft rose petals marked with crimson stripes. Compact grower 
and an early bloomer. 
Comtesse Canarii. An unusual shade of salmon-pink. 
bricated, medium-sized flowers. 
Daikagura. A grand early sort (October through December). 
Large, rose-red flowers of peony form with some interspersed 
stamens. Leaves deeply serrated on plant of somewhat open 
habit. Originated in California.

pink shading to lighter pink in center. Bushy, compact habit 
of growth and quite hardy.

except the edges of the petals, which are serrated. One of the 
loveliest of all the Camellias.
