Camellias, Camellias Everywhere

Last week my double red camellia started blooming in our yard! I love these flowers. When we lived up North we couldn't grow camellias because it was way too cold for them. Alot of our neighbors have really beautiful shell pink camellias. I would love to get some more camellias and put them in pots for when we move into a house of our own but I am going to wait until then. It won't be for some time yet but I will just enjoy the one I've got now and my neighbors!

Here are my camellias:

  7. Mine are especially huge this Winter too - love them. My neighbor has a pale pink one - so pretty - mine are all red like yours.

    Winter does have flashes of color that surprise us - and give us hope for Spring. Not looking forward to all that gardening ahead though - and still awaiting a nice heavy snowfall to help the soil and refresh the roots!

    Meanwhile - enjoying a mild and sunny morning again.

    Hugs - Mary

  8. These are beautiful! I have white ones which tend to get brown around the edges. But I try to get then when they are still snow white and bring then in. They make great floaters.
