ConeIIios Bloom, Home
Opened at BeIIingroth

North in greenhouses or adorn-
ing the shoulder of fashionable
ladies-bloom in profusion on
huge, two-story tall bushes in the
gardens and in the Mobile area
They flourish along the Gull
coast like wheat in Iowa.
The plants originally were i'm
ported to this country from
France, where they had so fasci-
mated the fascinating Marguerite
IGautier. the Dumas heroine. that
she called herself Camille after
them.
Most Mobilians still pronounce
the flower "ka-meel-ya." with
the second syllable the same as
lin Camille, despite an effort to
convert them to the generally
preferred 'ka-mell-ya."
Avid Followers
However pronounced. the flower
has as avid a cult of followers
as ever snapped chit-chat on
horse racing. stamp collecting OF
bird watching.
Unlike most people. who can
take them or leave them alone
these camellia fans 60 to great
lengths to obtain a new variety
develop a new variety of their
own from a seed or attend a
showing of camellia blooms.
Many camellia names are Jap
anese in origin, since that's
where the plants grew even be-
fore they emigrated to France
They are still called Japonicas
by some old-timers. but even the
"ka-meel-ya" fanciers frown on
this as being a bit too tacky.
Whatever you call them, you
apparently can't stop them from
blooming in this balmy gulf eli
mate. Balmy? Well. now. maybe
