» English Description

Saml. Curtis, 1820, Monograph on the Genus Camellia, p.2 as ‘Semidouble Waratah’. Introduced by Captain Rawes for Mr Palmer in 1816. Loudon, 1826, The Gardeners’ Magazine, vol. 1, p.341 as ‘Rawsiana’: A blossom of a new camellia named ‘Rawsiana’ recently imported from China by T.C. Palmer. It is a deep crimson red colour, double, with tufted petals in the centre. (As the camellia was named after the Captain Rawes who brought it from China the correct orthography is Rawesiana.) A full description was given under the synonym ‘Speciosa’ by Chandler & Booth, 1831, Illustrations & Descriptions of Camellias,…pl.32 - Flowers of a deeper red than ‘Waratah’ (Anemoniflora) usually 10 cm. across. Outer petals 2.5-3.6 cm in breadth, slightly cordate, generally rounded, a little recurved and faintly veined, 10-12 placed in 2 rows irregularly, with a few unequal white blotches. Above these is a set of small, incurved petals like Anemoniflora, which rise upright and increase in size to the centre. A third set of 8-10 petals, concave and erect, overtops the last and surrounds another set of incurved petals and has the appearance of one flower growing out of another. Most petals have an little white stripe at the base.
