(C.japonica), Floricultural Cabinet, vol.III, 1835, p.118 as. C.j. ‘Campbelli’ ‘Campbell’s

Hybrid’ a seedling from ‘Middlemist’s Blush’. The flowers are very large, of a fine white,

striped and spotted pale red. Rousseau, 1842-1843, Catalogue: White base striped rose.

Originated by Walter Fredrick Campbell, MP., Woodhall, Lanarkshire, UK. Orthographic

errors: ‘Campbellia’, ‘Cambellii’.

Campbellii. Gerbing’s Azalea Gardens Catalogue, 1938-1937. Pseudonym, as ‘Campbelli’, for

Margherita Coleoni and ‘Tokayama’.

Campbellii (France). The Pacific Camellia Society, 1946, Camellia Nomenclature, p.7: Synonym

for Campbellii (Guichard). This is given as coming from Guichard, France but does not

match the description in the Guichard Catalogues which, in 1984, still list ‘Campbelli’ as

“Fleur, semidouble, rouge”. McIlhenny listed this cultivar as ‘Dobreel’ in 1935 and Overlook

Nurseries gave it as a synonym for ‘Dobreel’ in 1954, but as this is an orthographic error for

Dorbrielle it is rejected as a prior valid name for the cultivar.
