CAMELLIA SCIONS
Due to the ever increasing costs of freight, we are offering scions to those interested in propagating their own Camellias. Because our primary business is growing and selling plants, scions will be sold only if readily available; we cannot, therefore, offer scions of varieties of which our saleable stock is limited. While we do not guarantee that our scions will live and grow, we do guarantee that they will be cut from healthy, vigorous plants, correctly labeled, and properly packed for prompt shipping, thereby giving you the best possible opportunity for maximum propagation success. Although we only guarantee that each scion will have but one growth bud, most of our scions will usually have two or three graftable buds.
On domestic scion orders add $5.00 or 20¢ per scion, whichever is greater, for handling and postage; on foreign orders add $20.00 or 75¢ per scion, whichever is greater. (NOTE: On all foreign orders please add $19.00 for the required Department of Agriculture inspection fees.) Please be sure to include your remittance with your order.
Those wishing to pick up scions at the nursery must place and pay for order a minimum of one week in advance of pick-up date.
