Exclusive! HOLMES Improved 
Blight-Resistant CAMELLIAS 
Bloom Through 
October, November 3] O00 UP 
and December 
Here’s good news! You can fill your garden with Camel- 
lias again. Due to their natural and voluntary resistance 
to blight, we isolated these plants in our Nurseries and 
have been checking them for any evidence of weakness. 
Now the story can be told. 
These Blight-Resisting Camellias are possessed of sur- 
prising growing qualities. They grow more quickly and 
produce a bush filled with small foliage and covered with 
either single or double blooms, as described below. Bloom 
earlier than usual, flowering in October. They are showy 
and hardy, and particularly fitted to landscaping. Re- 
quire the least care of any Camellias. Let Holmes help 
you to enjoy Camellias again with these easy, quick-grow- 
ing varieties, and enjoy 3 more months of Camellia blooms 
in your garden.
