Claire Norton, (Colo.) Story of the Horvath Roses:
Camellia is one of the loveliest of the Horvath Roses, an intercross of Rosa multiflora and R. canina, recrossed with Horvath's Improved Hortulanus Budde, thus producing a perpetual-flowering Rose of great beauty. The flowers are camellia-shaped, and a brilliant, sparkling cherry-red, shading to orange in the center; a hue not found among the Hybrid Teas. The growth is strong and hardy; the foliage green and healthy.
