GRAFTED CAMELLIAS 
Camellia varieties which are very difficult to root 
or are very slow growers, usually reach blooming 
size in two or three years if grafted. The rootstock 
used is a fast growing variety such as Sarah Frost 
or one of the varieties of Camellia sasanqua. Very 
scarce and rare camellias are usually grafted. Our 
price list indicates those varieties available in one 
and two year grafts. Prices vary according to age 
and size of rootstock. 
RARE VARIETIES 
Note: The sizes available—as indicated by bold 
type—are own root plants unless otherwise stated. 
ANNIE GRAY—Cherry red, semi-double with the 
petals standing out, midseason, very hardy, up- 
right growth. A very spectacular variety, contrast- 
ing the showy upright flowers with large smooth 
petals against drooping foliage. Profuse bloomer. 
The parent plant was introduced into Orton Gar- 
dens about 45 years ago, and its origin is unknown, 
Zones 1, 2, 3. 12-15”. 
AUDOLPH AUDUSSON—Bright red, semi-dou- 
ble, late, very hardy. This is an outstanding variety 
which is very much in demand. We are inclined to 
list it among the best varieties for the colder ranges 
of the Camellia belt. Zones 1, 2, 3. 1 & 2 year 
grafts. 
CUP OF BEAUTY—Pink, semi-double, midseason 
to late, very hardy. As the bloom opens the center 
remains compact; the flower thus resembles a cup 
and saucer. The center petals unfold later showing 
a cluster of yellow stamens. A compact grower, 
LONESEL 2303. 6=126-0125157 15-18%. 
DAIKAGURA — Variegated red marked with 
white, full double peoniform, very early. The pri- 
mary virtue of this superior variety is that the 
large showy flowers bloom before frost. Excellent 
for cut flowers; a must for every camellia collection 
and garden. See Arajishi for additional information. 
Zones 1, 2, 3. 6-12”, 12-15”, 15-18”, and 1 year 
grafts. 
DAIKAGURA RED—Same as Daikagura, but 
solid red. 1 and 2 year grafts. 
DEBUTANTE — Delicate pale pink, peoniform, 
early, handsome compact foliage. This rapid grow- 
ing exquisite pink peoniform makes an excellent 
cut flower. Follows closely behind Arajishi and 
Daikagura; usually in full bloom at Christmas. 
Zones 1, 2, 3. 6-12”, 12-15”, 15-18”, 18-24”, 24-30”. 
DONCKELARI (Eastern “Tea Garden’’)—Varie- 
gated, semi-double, midseason, hardy. The color of 
this camellia varies from brilliant red flecked with 
white spots to pure white with red markings; it 
shows a tight central formation of golden stamens. 
One of the finest of all the varieties. Particularly 
outstanding. Zones 1, 2, 3, 1, 2, and 3 year grafts.
