Description

» English Description

Vanderbilt, 1941, Camellia Research, II, p.3. No description. McIlhenny Cata­logue, 1941, p.5 as ‘Finliandia’: Large open flower. White with prominent stamens. SCCS., 1947, The Camellia. Its Culture and Nomenclature: Large, open flower with prominent stamens. Medium size, 10 cm across, semi-double with swirled and fluted petals. Medium, compact growth. Early to mid-season flowering. Synonyms: ‘Dearest’, ‘Nellie White’, ‘White Herme’, ‘White Jordan’, ‘Finlandia Alba’, ‘Finlandia White’. Sports: ‘King Lear’, ‘Monte Carlo’, ‘Sunset Oaks’, ‘Finlandia Blush’, ‘Finlandia Red’, ‘Finlandia Variegated’, ‘Roselle Bell’. This variety was originally propagated by Jannoch Nurseries, Pasadena, California, USA under the name ‘White Jordan’ but due to it being confused with ‘Jordan’s Pride’, the synonym for Hikarugenji it was changed to Finlandia in 1937. Jannoch obtained the variety from the old Busch Gardens where it probably originated as a sport of Finlandia Variegated which is the true parent of this group of mutations and which is believed to have come from Japan about 1910. Orthographic error: ‘Finland’. The name ‘Finlandia’ and ‘Finlandia F.N.’ were erroneously used for the cultivar Rosary in the USA.
