Narrative
Full name as recorded at U.S. National Arboretum: Camellia x vernalis (Hiemalis Group) 'Shishigashira'. Age: 70 years old in 2000. Years in training: 50 years in 2000 (in training since 1950). Gift of Mr Susumu Nakamura, Shonan School of Bonsai. The name "Camellia harianna" is not a valid name; per a National Bonsai Foundation newsletter article by Dr. Thomas Elias (USNA Director), the bonsai plant received with this name is a "kantsubaki", which if true would effectively place it as a selection of Camellia hiemalis. Identified by SBL as C. x hiemalis 'Shishigashira'. -SBL
