SIMPLE HINTS INSURING SUCCESS WITH 
CAMELLIAS 
When planting camellias select a well-drained 
semi-shaded place—complete shade is not advised. 
The hole for the plant should be double the width 
of the ball and at last two inches deeper. 
The soil should be enriched by the addition of 
well-decayed dairy fertilizer. Put enough of this 
wrepared soil in the hole to bring the grown roots 
about 3 inches below the surface. Be sure the soil 
is well packed around the roots, and water thor- 
oughly. 
Each spring give the plants a 2-inch mulch of 
well-chopped fresh dairy fertilizer. During the 
summer season plants should be mulched with 
oak leaves. Keep the soil moist, but not saturated 
—camellias do not like “Wet Fest”. General prun- 
ing must be done in February. Cut out all closely 
grown and dead branches. 
Camellias may be attacked by red spider, which 
causes the foliage to brown. The pest may be con- 
trolled by spraying with “Volk,” Jr. or Bordeaux 
Mixture—either will give good results. Spray on 
cloudy days, as bright sun will cause the leaves 
to burn. 
GRAFTED CAMELLIAS 
We are offering this year the following varieties 
of grafted camellias on 10 to 12 year old under- 
stock. This understock is vigorous and has not 
been transplanted or brought in from other 
sources.
