1788 CUR :
Curtis, William: Curtis' Botanical Magazine Vol.II, t.42, London 1788
Wonderful coloured picture of a single red Cam. jap. In most copies of the magazine the colour is rather rose than red.. In all other contemporary colored versions of the single red, the red is just like what we would expect from the wild type. How the Curtis camellia, which in addition seems to me a bit larger and fancier than the wild type, fits into the possible camellia scenery, cannot be clarified from todays knowledge.
