ter. The heavy, lovely textured petals have large veins. The 
leaves are large, dark green, with thick heavy twigs. A very 
strong growing plant. This is one of the handsomest of all 
camellias. 
QUEEN OF HEARTS—Semi-double ranging in color from 
pink to white. Almost every bloom on the bush is different. 
Blooms late. 
RAINY SUN—Deep pink, semi-double. 
RASEN ZOME—This is a beautiful camellia which we im- 
ported from Japan before the war. The leaves are dark 
green, heavily veined and frequently variegated. The flow- 
ers are a very beautiful unusual light pink resembling in 
form and size the Eugene Lizze. Both the flowers and 
foliage are beautiful. We think it is one of the new varieties 
that is well worth having. 
REV. JOHN BENNETT—Very large, loose semi-double sal- 
mon pink, with prominent stamens. The center petaloids are 
often streaked with white. The petals are beautifully veined. 
The plant has long narrow dark green foliage, and is a very 
good bloomer. 
REV. JOHN G. DRAYTON (Mary E. M.)—A loose peony- 
like flower of deep pink; wavy petals intermingled with 
golden stamens. Light green foliage, tall angular growth, 
late bloomer. 
ROSEA SUPERBA VARIEGATED—Probably the largest 
formal double rose. Similar in form to Purple Dawn or C. 
M. Hovey but often slightly larger. This variety was ad- 
mired extravagently wherever shown. 
ROSE DAWN—Large rose pink formal] flowers similar in 
form and shape to Alba Plena. A good many of our plants 
in this variety come variegated which we think adds to its 
beauty. 
PRIDE OF HOUSTON (Ross)—A large semi-double salmon 
pink flower, with eccasional small spots of white. The cen- 
ter petals are loosely twisted among golden stamens. This 
is a fine variety for cut flowers, as the stems are very long. 
Among the latest to bloom in the season. 
SAIFU—This is a dark pink variegated flower with red 
veins in the petals. The flowers have a small group of yel- 
low stamens in the middle and 5 to 6 rows of large petals 
that stand out individually. The leaves are small, dark 
green with heavy veins and the foliage is very dense. These
