ALBA PLENA 
To those of you who are already ardent camellia collec- 
tors, as well as to you who are just coming around to the 
realization of the tremendous satisfaction to be derived 
from the cultivation of this aristocrat of the plant world, 
may we bid you happy hunting. The following pages are 
filled with the newest, the oldest, the finest camellias 
that are being grown. You are cordially invited to visit 
our display grounds at any time of the year, to ask us as 
many questions as you want, and to see, in season, our 
labeled displays of blooms. And if, after seeing for your- 
self these lovely flowers, you are moved to write a better 
description than we have done, we'd like permission to 
use it in our next catalogue. 
We have displayed flowers of our new varieties in camellia 
shows all over the country so that we might have the 
opportunity to gain for ourselves, at firsthand, the im- 
pression made on the camellia lovers of the United States. 
The consensus of the country-wide opinions has governed 
to a large extent our propagation; we are confident this 
list contains the finest in the camellia world. Therefore, it 
is with the greatest pleasure and satisfaction that we 
present to our many friends our camellia list for the 
Season 1948-1949. 
sincerely 
ED ARNESEN DAVE COOK BILL WOODROOF
