1 Greetings from the President of the American Camellia Society
It is with considerable pleasure that I extend official greetings of the American Camellia Society to Atlanta's twenty-third annual· Camellia Show, also best wishes to the Atlanta Camellia Society, the North Georgia Camellia Society and the Buckhead Lions Club, the sponsoring organizations of this show, and the many fine camellia people of Georgia. The Atlanta Camellia Show is one of the oldest and most successful of the more than one hundred shows being held through . out the United States this season. As President of the American Camellia Society, I wish to thank the many individuals and organizations in the Atlanta area for their generous contributions to the ACS Endowment Fund. Our Georgia ACS Director, Carl Good, has not only given gen erously to the Fund but also is donating a fine set of electronic chimes for the cupola of the Headquarters Building in memory of the late Ina Good, under whose fine leadership many excellent Atlanta camellia shows were held. If you have not visited our new headquarters site at Massee Lane, which is five miles south of Fort Valley and less than a hun dred miles from Atlanta, I urge you to do so. The beautiful Williams burg type brick building is now essentially completed and within the next few months headquarters will be moved from Tifton. This building is completely surrounded by the seven acre Camellia garden and other property, the gift of our great benefactor, Mr. Dave C. Strother. Greenhouses now provide a display of camellias all winter, regardless of freezes. Your continued interest and support of this project is appreciated.

EDMONDSON, Atlanta, Georgia "Historia--Camelliae" is the theme for 1967-68 Artistic Classes in Ca mellia Shows over the country will surely bring before the general public a greater awareness of the current international interest in camellias. It is hoped that there is a class to appeal to almost every arranger and all the while provide an "extra" for the viewing public, for everybody admires the artistry of the floral designer, and, today our art is truly creative! It shall be the pleasure of this Chairman to interpret, advise, and console at any time, so that Camellia Shows under the guiding hand of our able ACS President, Alison J. Parsons of Norfolk, Virginia, will be the most beautiful, the most inspiring, and the most educational ever. In the first year in our "new home," Massee Lane Garden, the magnani mous gift of Dave Strother, our horizons have become truly unlimited. This great benefactor brings to the entire membership new inspirations and visions and soul-tingling joys. May the grandness of his gesture reflect itself in all those who come behind us. Artistic Arrangement Chairman is Mrs. Francis L. Edmondson, 2640 Mabry Road, N. E., Atlanta, Georgia 30319 (Master Judge and Life Member of the National Council of State Garden Clubs, Inc.; Charter Member and Accredited Judge of the American Camellia Society, Past President of the At lanta Camellia Society, Charter Member of International, North Georgia, and the Georgia Camellia Societies). The following policies are recommended: 1. The local Camellia Show's Artistic Arrangement Chairman may pre pare an entirely different schedule from this one prepared by the ACS Artistic Arrangement Committee. HOWEVER, if the local group desires to compete in the ACS Contest schedule must be selected from this ACS Schedule, and all the rules of this contest adhered to for an entry to qualify. 2. Local groups or clubs may add additional artistic arrangement classes and/or invitational classes to the official schedule, if they desire. 3. Contest entries will be selected only from the classes in the ACS Arrangement Schedule. 4. The Arrangement Judges and the Contest Judges should be accredited judges of the National Council of State Garden Clubs, Inc., in order to uphold the Standard System of Judging" It will be helpful if they are also Camellia Judges. 5. If only one Section is included, then five classes (minimum of four entries in each) will be necessary. If each Section, or if two of the three Sec tions are included in the local Schedule, then three classes (four entries in each) will be required. 6. Distinctive or different methods of staging, i.e., vignettes, screens for backgrounds, shojiis, niches, or backgrounds for capsule table settin~s are not only suggested but recommended by this Committee at the discretIOn of the local Show Committee. STAGING "makes" the Show, and the local schedule should clearly stipulate all sizes and colors of niches, tables, backgrounds, etc. 7. The local club is responsible for staging and rules for exhibiting and judging the contest arrangement classes. 22 T'------'·_----"·---"---'·_"-"-"·-"·-"·_·_-'-"-"·-'._"--"-"-j , i , i , i • • ,I iI •I 1!l i LENOX STANDARD SERVICE i' Proprietor-J.

DOAK It is with sadness that we chronicle the passing on September 28, 1967, of Wilber D. Doak, a loyal charter member and the first president of the North Georgia Camellia Society. He was ill for several years before his death but despite his enforced inactivity, his love and enthusi asm for camellias never waned. He continued to hold membership in local, state and national camel lia organizations despite his illness and was an ac credited judge. Known to his friends as "Bill", he was also'an active golfer, an amateur magician and a furniture craftsman, specializing in inlay work. Mr.Doak was a rare personality and loved by a host of friends who will miss him greatly. DR. D. L. ANDERSON A. A. GEIGER 24 SELECTING AND PLANTING CAMELLIAS Selecting Camellia Plants Having decided upon the varieties you plan to buy after considering which perform well in your area, next select a reliable nursery. Be careful to avoid bringing in plants from an area infested with Camellia Flower Blight. Most nurserymen specializing in camellias can advise you about the most satisfactory varieties for your location. For example, "ALBA PLENA," one of the most beautiful formal whites, is too tender for colder climates. On the other hand "VILLE DE NANTES" requires a certain amount of cold and does not perform well in warmer areas. Beware of plant peddlers from temporary roadside stands or trucks. Plants which have been grown in containers for several years as indicated by the metal being partially rusted away and with roots potbound are poor buys. Note color of foliage. If partially defoliated or leaves yellowish rather than a deep rich green, beware. Nurseries grade their plants according to size, age, vigor and shape. Often a vigorous one year graft, well healed over at point of graft juncture, is a better buy than a large older overbudded plant. A plant with little or no new growth shoots should be avoided. Standard varieties are often propagated as own root plants rather than grafts. These are possibly more satisfactory than grafts since there is sometimes an incompatibility between the understock and the graft. Rare varieties are usually grafted, hence are more expensive. Since the flowering season is the dormant season for the remainder of the plant, camellias are usually purchased during October to April. However, with containerized plants they may be safely purchased any month of the year. Most plants are field grown on a large commercial scale, then dug and either balled or burlapped or placed in containers. Either is satisfactory but avoid balled or burlapped plants which have been carried over in sawdust or peat moss for a second season. Moving very large plants is risky unless done by a professional who has root pruned and top pruned the plants and has the equipment and know how to dig and transport without breaking the soil ball. In clearing the building site for our new headquarters at Massee Lane several of the largest and oldest camellias were cut down rather than attempt to move them. Where to Pla,nt Camellias In their native habitat camellias are understory Shrubs or 'small trees with an overstory of taller trees providing filtered sunlight. The terrain is hilly or rolling, with good drainage. Low spots where water stands for any length of time must be avoided. Camellias are adaptable to a wide range of soil types. If very sandy, humus and frequent addition of fertilizers and water must be provided. Clay soil may be improved by adding humus, decayed sawdust or other organic matter. A rich loamy soil is ideal. Camellias withstand a considerable pH (soil acidity alkalinity) range, however a near neutral or slightly acid soil is preferred. 25 Avoid building or wall foundations which may have considerable lime. If desired to plant in ,uch locations for foundation effect as espaliering the soil should be tested for alkalinity and amended if necessary, or replaced. Probably more plants have been lost through planting too deep or not making allowance for sinking or settling of the plant than any other cause. Avoid morning sun--or planting on an unprotected east front. The north side of walls, windbreaks or providing artificial shelter so that buds and other plant parts do not thaw rapidly after freezes are good locations. Few varieties do well in full sun or where exposed to reflected heat from a wall or pavement. How to Plant Camellias There are only a few simple rules to follow in successful planting of camellias. Having selected a proper site with good drainage, filtered sunlight or partial, but not total, shade or make provision for artificial shade-one is ready to prepare a hole for the plant. There is some merit in the old warning "do not put a $5 plant in a SOC hole," but too often too deep a hole is dug, filled in with rotted leaves, manure and loose soil. The soil removed from the hole should be examined to determine whether it should be discarded or whether it can be improved by the addition of humus (peat, leaf compost, old manure, rotted sawdust or ground bark). Soil compatibility must be considered. IUhe soil on the root ball is hard clay this should be removed entirely. Many careful growers regularly remove the original soil as a precautionary measure against Camellia Flower Blight. If the root ball soil is sandy it will be incompatible with a clayey soil. It is important that the root ball rests on undisturbed soil or else that the soil is firmly tamped down in the bottom of the hole. The balled and bur lapped plant or the one removed from a container should be placed on solid earth so that the crown projects about 3 inches above the original soil level surrounding the hole. This will allow for settling and provide good drainage. It is not necessary to remove the burlap from the ball of earth. This soon disintegrates and the new roots readily penetrate the burlap anyway. Many successful growers do not add commercial fertilizer to ~he soil mix. Others add cotton seed meal which provides nitrogen slowly over a long period. Some use a small amount of azalea-camellia fertilizer at planting time then fertilize later on the surface. If commercial fertilizers come in direct con tact with the young feeder roots this can be disastrous. Add sufficient Dolomitic (agricultural) limestone to bring the soil pH to slightly acid-about 6.2 or near 7 (neutral). It is well to leave a circular depression and a rim of soil around the plant for several months so as to hold water until the plant becomes established. Mulch heavily to conserve moisture and protect from freezing. +1-lItl_nll_..._Illl_IlIl_""_IIlI_lIll tll_IIll_Ihl_IIll_*,-orIllt IlM - .,, .+ Compliments of I STEVENS &WILKINSON 1 +.-trR_IlII_MII_lln_IIH_ltl_MII_IIl,_lm_lIJl_rm_'IIll_rm_",,_rm_mt_IRI_1lll-1lIl_._nll_lIh_...._IIl_._._,+ 26 Rim of earth Ball 2 to 3 inches above original soil level Undisturbed or tightly packed earth Bud Drop A common complaint of camellia. growers is that of bud drop. Many things may cause this sometime troublesome condition. Camellias planted too deep, poor drainage, either water logged or too dry soil can cause bud drop. Unbalanced fertilizers, especially those lacking in potash have been found to contribute to bud drop. Over fertilizing can be as disastrous as under fertilizing. 27 An even and constant supply of water is important. Even lack of sufficient moisture for a short time may cause bud drop, particularly during August and September. Sudden cold spells and equally sudden thaws cause this trouble. Recently moved plants on which the roots have been severely pruned or broken, particularly when this loss is not compensated by top pruning or removal of some of the leaves, are likely to shed buds. Certain varieties tend to consistently produce more buds than the plant can develop to maturity. Unfavorable growing conditions may cause excess bud set. Disbudding or rather debudding-thinning of the number of buds on a plant-is important. Too much shade or too much direct full sunlight are also contributing causes. There are indeed many causes of bud drop. Good cultural practices are important in its control or prevention. +1 IIlI_""_IIII_._III_.._""_UN_IIII_IIII IIlI_IIll_MII_llIl_UII_IlIl_IItI_UII_U__IIII_IIII_IIII__+ i j i i I I i i Compliments of i WARD WIGHT REALTY CO.

GENTRY KIDD, Houston, Texas Camellias should delight every gardener. They are beautiful landscape plants. They produce flowers in the winter, when the garden is barren of color. They are shiny evergreens the year around. For these reasons everyone should want Camellias. A healthy camellia plant properly planted will give a lifetime of pleasure, relatively trouble free, and will enhance every garden. From Maryland to California camellias can and do thrive and they fit in the category of hardy shrubs. . Let's don't let this species Japonica be left out of the gardens. Ithas a spot in every landscaping theme. So little spotlight in Camellia shows is given to outdoor grown blossoms. Most of the flowers honored seem to be greenhouse flowers now. There is absolutely no way camellias grown outdoors and unprotected from the elements can compete with them. The winters with freezes, low humidity, hard winds, digging animals, flying and chewing insects, make competition with protected flowers impossible. I have yet to see an unpro tected bloom, gibbed or not, win the outstanding flower of the show, if they competed against protected blossoms. The greenhouse flower wins it every time. Yet the garden produces quality flowers vivid in color and fine texture too, although they do not assume the size of greenhouse flowers. Gib is a great help for many varieties, inducing flowers in the Fall. I am terribly grateful for this boost, for after winter sets in many of these varieties will no longer produce flowers of any consequence. Yet these same varieties produce magnificent blossoms taken from, their warm winter homes. Admittedly at times like this, I am envious. If the general public who attend Camellia shows is only to see elephantine flowers grown under protection on the queen's table how are they to know a camellia is a hardy plant? After viewing the head table they surely assume they require a greenhouse to grow them in, like orchids. The public should not be so misled as to think this species Japonica can only be owned by a few, grown by a few, who have greenhouses. It is my considered opinion the average viewer of a camellia show prefers the formal double flower. 'PINK PERFECTION' is still a favorite. When I first became interested in camellias I felt that way, wanting only the formal doubles and those preferably white. It was many miles down the road that I learned to love variegation, rabbit ears, stamens and anthers in a camellia blossom. So let's show the public the 'PINK PERFECTIONS' his mother grew in her garden and while we're at it let's show him many varieties. Let's show him some miniatures, some small, some medium and some large flowers on the head table. In this way we can inform the public of the plants that'grow and flower well in the garden. This species Japonica has reigned as queen of the South long before the advent of greenhouses. In areas where camellias are grown, both indoors and 30 +1-1III-._Illl_.... _IIIl_l'o_ .... _III._..

Some few camellia shows throughout the South allow no partiality. Pro tected and unprotected flowers do share equal honors. Yet other camellia shows, even one of the largest shows in the South last year, have no class for unprotected flowers. If greenhouse flowers are to continue to monopolize the head table with ~" their magnificent six inch or larger blossoms, what is to become of the out door grown camellia? Is it to' be put away completely or shoved over in a comer like a poor country cousin? Many nurseries no longer handle camellias. They tell me the public has lost interest in this beautiful blossom. I feel it is because the public has been misinformed about camellias. They feel they must own a greenhouse to grow camellias and of course not many can afford to own or may even want a greenhouse. Let's put the camellias back in the garden. They are a hardy perennial. It is time for the pendulum to swing outdoors. The pleasure of viewing camellias, healthy shiny evergreens, planted in the ground is twelve months of beauty to enjoy in every garden. I hope every would-be gardener will join us in growing camellias in their garden. 31 LEAVE THA,T MULCH ALONE! DR: FRANCIS DE Vas Assistant Director, U. S. NationalArboretum Washington, D. C. Recent research has indicated that mulches can be detrimental at times. In experiments with azaleas growing in the open under nursery conditions, bark splitting in the fall was less severe on plants which had their mulch re moved about three weeks prior to the first killing frost. The reason for this is that the mulch partially prevents the accumulated heat in the soil from escaping' to the air. The air a few inches above a mulch at the time of the early frost , may be 5 to 6 degrees colder than the air above bare soil. There is no question about the validity of the results obtained in the azalea experiments. The practice of removing the mulch from young azaleas growing in the open just prior to the first fall frosts is recommended. It is un fortunate, however, that the mulch experiments have been interpreted by some writers to be equally applicable to camellias and to azaleas growing in garden situations. Comparable experiments with camellias and azaleas growing in the gardens are needed to determine if the radiation of ground heat is effectively slowed down by over-hanging tree branches until stem tissues have developed some cold resistance. General observations indicate that frosts occur much earlier in the open than in nearby woodlands, and that fall bark splitting is less common where azaleas are grown under the overhanging branches of trees. The following reasons for maintaining a constant mulch under camellias would seem to far outweigh any possible advantages that might be obtained from removing the mulch in the fall. There is no evidence that the results obtained on azaleas are applicable to camellias; removing the mulch from large collections can be a considerable chore; the alternate thawing and freezing during the winter of unmillched soils can cause considerable root breakage and heaving of young plants; and the drying out of the soil surface during fall droughts can cause severe injury to the shallow roots that had developed just below the interface of the mulch and soil. Mulches are essential for the best growth of camellias and should be maintained at a nearly constant depth the year around. +-."-''''-''II_'I''-'III-\IIl-'III-'III_''''-II''-''''-'I\'-~t +"'III'-tIll-UM-IIH-.",-IlIl-UII_nll_UII_IHl_llll_IIlI_.+ i ~ i fine furnishings ! and accessories,. . complete !

By S. L. MARBURY, Wilmington, N. C. Always after a hard Winter, a good many camellia growers give serious thought to growing at least part of their camellias under glass. This is exactly what happened to me after the Winter of 1947. Having invested several thousand dollars in camellia plants and waiting all Sum mer and Fall for a flush of blooms, it was rather heartbreaking to have an entire crop of new blooms wiped out overnight. After experiencing a couple of seasons of this kind, I finally decided to purchase a greenhouse and this was erected in the Summer of 1947. The house, measuring about 18 x 42 feet, was capable of holding about 175 tubs and canned camellias. So, in. the Winter of 1947-48, regardless of the outside weather, we always had an abundance of blooms. I derived so much pleasure and satisfaction from this house that the following year I added on another house 18 x 32 feet, and with this additional house we can take care of about 300 plants. . From' now on, year by year, the number of plants in the greenhouse will have to be reduced as they are growing rapidly and many of them are now seven and eight feet high and are planted in tubs about 24" in diameter. When I purchased my first greenhouse, the problem was whether to plant camellias directly in the ground and let them remain there permanently or whether to plant them in containers and move them out according to the seasons. After seeing Camellias growing in several greenhouses, both in the ground and in containers, r definitely decided that I ,did not want to plant them in the ground on account of the terrific heat of the Summer. For years now I have grown all greenhouse camellias in cans and tubs, moving them into the greenhouses in late November or December where they remain until March or until all danger of freeze is over. These tubs are set on top of three bricks to prevent them from direct contact with the ground and the Iasting qual ity of these tubs is quite remarkable, While outside, they are placed among the trees where they get semi-shade. For containers I use I-gallon cans for small plants, 3-gallon and 5-gallon cans for somewhat larger sizes, and for larger plants I use wooden tubs about 16" in diameter and steel drums of similar size. For real large plants r purchased 30-gallon wooden barrels, cutting them in half, and they make a tub about 24" in diameter. This size tub is taking care of plants which are now seven or eight feet high and r believe will continue to do so for several years to come. As for soil, I use a mixture of equal parts of top soil, coarse sand, well-rotted stable manure, and to this mixture I add about 50% peat. The tubs are mulched with two or three inches of peanut hulls or pine straw and fertilized usually about February and May, with a final application about October. Since the roots are so concentrated in these tubs, I use fertilizer rather sparingly, using at most about half of what r would use on similar plants planted in the open ground. For heat, I now use two SKW Electric Heaters, but for many years rused a total of three oil stoves with two burners each. These were purchased at the secondhand stores for about ten dollars each and will take care of these greerrhouses where the temperature on the outside does not get below fifteen degrees. Now, if you are one of those that has been thinking of a greenhouse, by all means try it out, regardless of how small a house you buy, and r am sure that it is one of the things that you will never live to regret.

In the May 1966 issue he gives the following very practical information on spraying to control scale and other pests: "We are using Volek at a rate of 1 to 50 with nicotine sulfate-(Black Leaf 40) and Rapid-Gro added. With this spray it is important to get the spray underneath each leaf and thoroughly wet the wood trunk and limbs if you have camellia or peony scale. This spray should be applied before the temperature reaches 90 degrees. If the infestation is very bad a second and third application should be made ten days apart. This is done to kill those insects that hatch out between spraying and it usually takes three sprayings to do the job. "We have learned why we failed to get results from Cygon. Time of ap plication is most important. It must be applied in the spring when ~e new growth reaches a full leaf size. This must be followed by another application six weeks later or the first application will be a lost cause. Hot weather doe,s not affect Cygan spray and you do not have to spray under each leaf. "Do remember-the proper time of first application and the 'musf second application six weeks later or you will be wasting your money. Results have been excellent when applied correctly. An insecticide should be added. to the Cygon in order to kill aphids and other such insects. Cygon goes into the sap system of the plant and kills only sucking insects, like the different scales. (Tea, camellia and peony.) Since it has to be absorbed by the leaves, a spreader sticker should be used to make the leaves absorb as much of it as possible. A small amount of Volek would be excellent. Some have used the regular amounts of Volek and Cygon mixed together thereby getting immediate results from the Volek which also holds the Cygon on the leaves so it can be absorbed. You still have to spray again in six weeks with Cygon and it may be too hot to use Valek in this second application, therefore, some other medium . should be used.

Camellias nave been the aristocrat of Southern gardens since the first plants were brought in from England in the early 1800's. Early, midseason, and late varieties make it possible to have blooms over a long period when few other flowers are blooming. This, plus the tremendous variations in bloom size, color and form, is causing more and more gardeners to succumb to the temptation to try their hand at growing this "Queen" of fall- and winter-flowering shrubs. Camellias are not hard to grow, but because of their blooming season there is always the risk of losing blooms of certain varieties, especially the mid-season ones, to severe freezes (below 10 degrees F.) and to sudden temperature drops following lengthy warm periods. Possible freeze damage has caused many growers, especially in the Middle . and Upper South, to turn to either lath houses or greenhouses for protection. (Camellias are not hothouse plants and do best at temperatures around 40 to 45 degrees F., but greenhouses with provisions for heating are a must in colder areas.) Gibbing to produce earlier, larger, and finer blossoms (see page 76, Oc tober SoutheftJ Living) has become almost a standard practice for greenhouse and outdoor camellia fanciers. Gibbed buds will bloom from 4 to 6 weeks earlier than untreated buds, making it possible for outdoor growers to produce fine blossoms on varieties whose buds would normally be killed by freezing. Breeding, selecting, and testing for varieties that will stand more cold and also for those that bloom before or after danger of freezing have paid good dividends. In addition to the very early and late blooming varieties, those most likely to go through severe cold to bloom normally are the semidouble, incomplete double (anemone form), and irregular double (peony form) types. Here are some varieties that usually bloom before severe freezes, can be bloomed early by gibbing, or have demonstrated good cold resistance and are good candidates for outdoor gardens where temperatures usually don't drop below 10 degrees F. You can get a more complete list of cold-hardy varieties by requesting it from the American Camellia Society, Box C, Tifton, Geor gia 31794. WHITE Leucantha-Medium-Iarge, semidouble blooms.

A Man's Flower By Eugene Schofield Heath This thesis is not to be taken to imply that the camellia is a flower for a man to wear on his coat lapel, although small-flowered varieties such as Coley's Perfection, Radiation, Gayety and others, are small enough for a man to wear as personal adornment, just as he may wear a carnation, with out feeling that he is violating the hard and fast, not to say stupid customs and traditions of what is suitable for male exploitation. Conversely, it is granted then, that the large-flowered varieties may be worn by women, but not by man, - at least, not until fashions change. The impression still maintains that the camellia is an expensive plant. Most women guard the families' purses so carefully that only a favored few feel that they are justified in the heavy expenditure of purchasing camellia plants. This is particularly true when they contemplate the purchase of some of the so-called fine-haired neW varieties which are usually scarce, and high-priced because of their scarcity. But, a man who has been bitten by the "camellia-bug" will splurge by buying the latest variety at the price demanded. Again, the camellia is a man's flower because even the fairly small blooming-size plants are apt to be dug at the nursery, transported, and sold with a fairly large and heavy ball of earth to protect its roots. Many women find the lifting and carrying of the large balled and burlapped plants, a burden, not so the man. He enjoys showing how powerful and masculine an animal he is, and he will carry a fairly heavy camellia, B. & B., quite proudly, to and from his car, to its final gro\ying locus. The very planting of a camellia calls for genuine muscular work. The usual instructions for digging the hole for a camellia, call for a hole's diameter three times the width of the ball, and a depth twice the depth of the ball. Not infrequently, this requires a hole three feet in diameter and two feet deep, - a he-mans' job! . In the case of a plant to be grown in a container, much heavy lifting is involved. Even the container is apt to be heavy in itself; when lifted with earth and plant, it may weigh a few hundred pounds. This is surely no weight for the average women to toss about. Few real camellia fans are satisfied to grow their favored plants out of doors. In some cases, their sensibilities, their heart action, or something else (maybe greed) can not stand to see many of their best flowers frozen brown before they are fully in bloom. To avoid this, a greenhouse is neces sary. Even a cheap greenhouse soon runs into money, - hundreds or even thousands of dollars. This is a major investment for a man. Many people think all greenhouses are hot houses, but the camellia is, by nature, a cool-weather plant and requires a cool house. It does remark 0 ably well in temperature barely above the frost line of F + 42 • In most of the camellia-growing parts of the United States very little artificial heating is required. In fact, too much heat and too little air circulation may cause considerable bud-drop. Unless the heating system is automatic, it is certainly a man's business to go to the greenhouse at night, to adjust the heaters when the weather forecast warns that a severe freeze is in the offing. This is no job for a woman unless the greenhouse is attached to the dwelling. Fertilizing and spraying are two important chores demanded for good camellia horticulture, and both jobs may be very "messy." In the spraying 48 of container-grown camellias, the spraying may be rendered more effective if the plants are laid down on the ground or floor, and are turned so as to make certain that every leaf is wetted on the under surface. If no scale insects are ever seen on the leaves of a plant, said plant is probably not a camellia. The camellia is as much the natural host of the scale insects, as the dog is the natural host of fleas. Constant vigilance is needful for each . host. If the greenhouse is nearly airtight, fumigating is quite good for killing the scales. All of this is unpleasant work for a woman. Greenhouse-grown camellias may be placed out of doors for the warmer part of the year. Moving heavy, container-grown plants weighing a few hundred pounds each, is surely a man's job, and even a man needs a hand truck to accomplish the feat. This chore can rarely be left to the ordinary "yard ·man." On the contrary, it ought to be done by a man who has a real love for the plants. Pruning, propagation by cuttings or by any of the various methods of grafting, and the general reconditiomng of camellias, all call for information and the skill to apply the information. Most men have enough leisure time to inform themselves from the printed page. Men usually know how to keep edged tools in good condition for this work. It is difficult to imagine a woman using a sharpening file and a vise, or a grindstone. . Phytogeographic exploration for new specie.s of camellia, has almost invariably been done by men. It involves many hazards too arduous for women. But what a delight for a man! The crossing of varieties and the hybridizing of species, is work for which a meticulous man is particularly suited, but in this connection, it must be admitted that the Soeur Guichard of Nantes have been outstandingly suc cessful in the production of fine new varieties. The Williams hybrids from Wales, are work of a man, - a work of pure fun. Last but not least, exhibiting and competing for place or prize, is enough incentive to throw 'many men off their hobby-horses, and to impel them to ship or carry their blooms hundreds 01' miles to the show room, whence they return with ribbons or more substantial prizes, - or doleful faces! But isn't it worth it? To pa.raphrase Mr. R. B. Wilby in his booklet on camellias, "Camellias give more beauty than anyone man is entitled to."

Comparatively few arrangers grow their own camellias. I believe some of the difficulty on the part of the arranger and grower as to what camellias are needed. Generally, the arranger isn't concerned with the rare new variety, nor with the blue ribbon quality specimen blooms. A 6 to 7 inch bloom of To MORROW, MRS. D. W. DAVIS or other extremely large flowers are difficult to arrange and focuses attention on the flower itself rather than on the over all effect. Arrangers often prefer smaller, older varieties. The variety CORN US FLORA, an old, single variety, is highly prized by arrangers. Single seedlings are often very acceptable to arrangers. Growers often complain that arrangers want long stems or even branches. If one or two large camellias are needed, they are usually used at the base of the arrangement, hence short stems would do as well. Where smaller flowers, buds and foliage are needed, a branch from the base of the plant, which should be pruned anyway, will be entirely satisfactory. Often an arranger is satisfied with short stems if she can have some branches from another camellia plant on which to wire them. A grower with large plants may be persuaded to-cut long branches which touch the ground or cut others which should be thinned out anyway. +'_IIll_"_lMl_._IIll_I/II_IIlI_II~_IlW_"_IlII_lI._IIlI_"_IlW_I!._WIl_II._IUI_111l_1l1l_1I11_lIn_lIll_ltfI_Un_.+ i i• i I I i i i• I lii ~~ {Jf~ Hote~lftIdttfrua In the heert 9( bustling downtown Atlante i• ! •I t +--.-.-.-._.-._._.-.-._.-.---._._._.-.-._.~.-.-.-----.-l 51 t"-,III-,III-,III-lIl1-,III-""-"'I-III1-IlII-,ln-IIII-,III-+ t------~ I ! i i I • DISPLAY TABLES j j I I j WIEDEMAN and j FURNISHED BY· 1 j SINGLETON j I j j AARON • RENTS j CONSULTING ENGINEERS j I 2881 BUFORD HIGHWAY, N.
