FINLANDIA VARIEGATED 
CAMELLIAS ARE EASY TO GROW 
in a shady, sheltered location, in acid soil with good drainage in 
which generous quantities of leaf mold or peat moss have been 
added. They require generous amounts of water during the grow- 
ing season but this should never become stagnant for lack of drain- 
age. Withhold fertilizer after the flower buds have set. All are 
hardy in Southern California. SASANQUA CAMELLIAS are differ- 
ent from Camellia japonica mainly in their willowy spreading growth, 
smaller, earlier flowers, tolerance to sun. Particularly adaptable to 
training on walls, trailing over rocks or ground covering. 
EXQUISITE 
Ornamental evergreen shrubs of exquisite beauty and highly prized 
for their flowers during the winter months. After blossoming the 
dark green, glossy foliage and dense habit of growth make an at- 
tractive appearance in the garden.
