son. Because of the early blooming habit, we expect this 
camellia to be very popular in the areas which have damage 
from cold weather. 
BELLA ROMANA (Madam Strekaloff) — A medium sized 
camellia, with large light pink petals profusely striped and 
splashed with streaks of crimson. 
BESSIE MORSE BELLINGRATH (Toki-No-Hagasane) — A 
large semi-double flower white with a faint blush of pink. 
A compact grower which blooms mid-season. 
BIG BEAUTY — White blotched and dashed pink. Large, 
semi-double to semi-peony form. Vigorous, upright growth. 
BLACK DRAGON — This is the English translation of a 
Japanese name of this variety which we imported from 
Japan before the war. It is an outstanding camellia. Flow- 
ers are very large and very dark red and resemble in color 
Mrs. Charles Cobb and in form of the Victor Emmanuel. 
The edges of the petals are crimped and are of a much 
deeper shade than the balance of the flower. The flowers 
that we have exhibited have attracted a great deal of 
attention. 
BLACK DRAGON, VAR. — Same as Black Dragon with 
flecks of white. Contrast of dark red and white makes this 
bloom very striking.

blush pink center. It makes a vigorous upright spreading 
type growth.

edges. Mid-season bloomer.

shape of Professor Sargent.

well during and after cold weather.

tics as Campbell Ashley, only is dark red and white.

fuse late season bloomer. Slow compact type growth.
