Description

» English Description

Anonymous, May,1841, The Gardeners’ Chronicle where it is given as synonymous with ‘Reticulatiflora’. Verschaffelt, 1849, Nouvelle Iconographie, Book XII, pl.IV: “Although this camellia, of Italian origin, has been grown commercially for 4 or 5 years, we did not know it until M.A. Dalliere sent us a plant. An exceptionally full foliage, a large blossom formed of rounded or oblong-lanceolate petals, regularly imbricated and of unusual size as well as a vivid red colouring (Dark Crimson) are merits...” There has been considerable discus­sion on Professor Waterhouse’s contention that the camellia known for many years in Europe, Australia and New Zealand as Mathotiana and ‘Mathotiana Rubra’ was, in fact, Grand Sul­tan. See discussion under Grand Sultan in Urquhart’s, The Camellia, 1956. Until future infor­mation shows otherwise, this contention is accepted. Synonyms: ‘Te Deum’, ‘Reticulatiflora’, ‘Midsummer’s Day’. Other synonyms collected in the USA against the name ‘Te Deum’ are ‘Dr Shepherd’, ‘Firegold’, ‘Morague’, ‘Shah of Persia’, ‘Pasha of Persia’. Orthographic variants: ‘Gran Sultana’, ‘Gran Sultano’, ‘La Gran Sultana’, ‘Le Grande Sultane’, ‘Grand Sultana’. Sports: Augusto Leal de Gouveia Pinto, Shepherdess.
