CAMELLIA SASANQUA 
One of the newer and finest of all the broad-leaved 
evergreens. Similar to Camellia japonica, but looser and 
faster growing. Very profuse bloomers, the flowers com- 
mencing to open the latter part of September and con- 
tinuing on through November—a time when very few 
flowers can be had. 
Sasanquas are very hardy and can be grown without 
protection in the latitude of Memphis, Tenn., Birming- 
ham, Ala., Atlanta, Ga., Charlotte, N. C., and even 
much farther north along the Atlantic seaboard. They 
are extremely satisfactory in landscape work, as individual 
specimens, in foundation plantings, and for hedges, and 
their popularity is only just beginning. From many thou- 
sands of seedling plants, we have originated a few out- 
standing kinds which we offer in the following list, along 
with and at the same prices as for the named varieties. 
ANNETTE (No. 5 Variegated). A two-toned variety, 
similar to Cinderella but more dense in growth and the 
flowers are a much deeper shade of pink. 
CINDERELLA (No. 2 Variegated). Rather dense, rapid 
grower of pyramidal habit, with handsome, single, two- 
toned flowers which are white in center and shade to 
pink at the ends of the petals. Very early.
