» English Description
The Jennings Nursery Co., Inc. 1932, catalogue, from Jennings, Louisiana. McIlhenny, 1934, List of Camellias for Sale, p.1: Pure red, irregular double, blotched white, 10.5 cm across x 5 cm deep. There are two rows of large petals, outer row consisting of 9. The centre is made up of a few large petals mixed with petaloids and some stamens. Leaves, dark green, twisted, 7.5 cm x 5 cm. Plant growth wide, spreading, willowy and medium in rate. The original plant grew in the old home of Governor Mouton, Lafayette, Louisiana, USA and is believed to be a lost label plant from the 19th century. There is also a similar old plant from which the cultivar Aunt Jetty originated which appears to be a solid colour form of Governor Mouton. SCCS., Camellia Nomenclature lists Aunt Jetty as a synonym as solid colour blooms are not uncommon of Governor Mouton. However this is quite common with cultivars variegated by virus and the solid and variegated forms are accepted as individual varieties. Orthographic errors: ‘Gov. Mouton’, ‘Governor Mouzan’, ‘Governeur Moutans’, ‘Gouvernor Mouton’. Synonyms: ‘Governor Mouton Variegated’, ‘Variegated Governor’. Colour pl. facing p.242, 1954, American Camellia Yearbook and Gerbing, 1945, Camellias, p.97.
