Yellow summer sprays for cutting. See page 11. 
CALLISTEMON 
Callistemon lanceolatus. We have seen many varieties of 
Callistemon and so have you, displaying their garish summer 
heads of rich red, but we have never before seen a variety 
so completely covered with bloom as this. Big, erect heads 
of dazzling crowded stamens, in bottle brush form, are boldly 
displayed against the polished lance-like leaves. Hardy and 
drought resistant. Sun. 8-10 ft. Gal. containers, $1.25. 
CAMELLIAS 
Many people think Camellias difficult to grow. Our ex- 
perience has been entirely to the contrary. As a matter of 
fact we feel that few plants are as easily grown and certainly 
no plants will supply more bloom over a long period. 
Ask for our complete Camellia Catalegue which describes 
the following varieties and many mere. 
See page 50 for planting and cultural directions. 
Adolphe Audusson. Immense, semi-double, rich deep red, 
looking like velvet, the majority of the blooms variegated 
with pure white. The plant is vigorous and compact, with 
dark green, rounded foliage. Dec. to March. 5-gal. contain- 
ers, $17.50; gal. containers, $6.00. 
Alba Plena. The most sought after white Camellia. The 
large flowers are of lovely form, delicate and chiffon-like 
with overlapping petals that never show the stamens. The 
bushy plant has a spreading habit of growth, with pale green 
foliage, requiring more shade than most Camellias. The 
earliest white, blooming some seasons from Thanksgiving 
until March. 5-gal. containers, $10.00; gal. containers, $4.00. 
Bella Romana. A striking variegated Camellia, double and 
large petaled. The color varies in individual flowers but is a 
rich pink splashed with streaks of deep rose. The texture is 
that of crepe paper. Blooms early. 5-gal. containers, $7.50; 
gal. contianers, $2.75. 
Chandleri Elegans Var. The Camellia that makes every one 
exclaim. Enormous peony flowered bloom with tightly curled 
center petals among a fringe of larger ones. The bloom is 
soft rose splotched with white. Though the shrub is of mod- 
erate growth it is bushy and the flowers are produced even 
when the plant is small. Fine to espalier. Early to mid-sea- 
son. 5-gal. containers, $7.50; 2-gal. containers, $6.00; gal. con- 
tainers, $3.25. 
C. M. Hovey (Colonel! Firey). Large double, rich crimson, 
beautifully shaped to 5 inches having the regular form of 
Pink Perfection, but much larger. The plant is slow in 
growth, somewhat dwarf, but sets many flowers. Mid to late 
season. 5-gal. containers, $9.00; gal. containers, $3.25. 
FAIRY LANTERNS. White and dainty. 
See page 11. 
MYSTERY GARDENIA. 
Intoxicating fragrance. See page 13. 
Covina. One of the best producers among the Camellias, 
blooming freely over a long period. The flowers are medium 
sized, semi-double, clear rose pink, the petals more loosely 
arranged than those of Pink Perfection. The shrub grows 
compactly with fine foliage, making it especially desirable 
for tub culture. Mid-season. 5-gal. containers, $5.00; 2-gal. 
containers, $4.00; gal. containers, $1.25. 
Daikagura Var. The earliest Camellia to bloom. Bright 
rose-red splotched with white, a full double peony, its center 
petals are smaller and often curled and twisted. The foliage 
is beautiful. Nov. to Feb. 5-gal. containers, $7.50; gal. con- 
tainers, $3.00. 
Debutante. This is a favorite as a cut flower. A solid light 
pink peony form Camellia that is tightly formed and does not 
show the stamens. The plant is tall and vigorous; its medium 
sized leaves are deeply serrated. Nov. to Feb. 5-gal. con- 
tainers, $12.50; gal. containers, $5.00. 
Donckelari. A free blooming, semi-double, large petaled 
Camellia of intense, unfading cherry-red marked with white. 
The center is filled with golden stamens and anthers. The 
foliage is long, smooth, glossy and sharp pointed; the shrub 
is dwarf, slender and willowy and, though slow growing, it 
produces flowers freely. English strain. Jan. to March. Gal. 
containers, $7.50. 
Finlandia. Extremely large semi-double white Camellia, 
unusually delicate and clear-cut in form. The petals are broad 
and wavy; the golden stamens extremely showy. The me- 
dium green foliage is carried on a compact, bushy plant. 
December to March. 5-gal. containers, $7.50; gal. containers, 
52.75. 
General Dwight Eisenhower. A lovely deep red peony 
form Camellia. New and well worth owning. Large, heavy 
dark green foliage on a vigorously growing plant. Feb. to 
April. 5-gal. containers, $17.50; gal. containers, $7.00.

bright pink in color. The bush is open, vigorous and upright 
in growth. A medium to late bloomer. 5-gal. containers, 
$15.00; gal. containers, $6.00. 
Gigantea (Emperor Wilhelm). Huge, bright cherry-red 
with a very clear white section, the center of the flower filled 
with petaloids and stamens. In form it is similar to Chandleri 
Elegans but is even larger. The plant is a rapid grower and 
outstanding. December to March. 5-gal. containers, $15.00; 
gal. containers, $5.00. 
Glen No. 40. Double deep red flowers with rounded petals. 
Considered the finest red Camellia by collectors. Slow grower
