Hi Tom, I, too, am looking for the older camellias. I do have access for some of the ones you are looking for. July is actually the best time here in Louisiana to cut scions. I will keep up with the notes posted here and be in further contact.

I have just made some cuttings of my great grandmothers camellia bushes. They have been at her house for over fifty years,(they were cuttings from her mothers camellia bushes.) They are pink,red,and white flowers from different bushes. I do not know the "type" but as I said they are very old. I am not sure how to get them to root or where to plant them in my yard....Any advice?
