The Camellia is from a bush that was just tee-ninesty when I moved in; I think it was a volunteer. We are in zone 7 for planting... to my knowledge folks have trouble growing camellias much north of here. My sister in zone 6 can not grow them (even with her very green thumb!).
I do love mine. They are of the Japonica species which, according to my records, are blooming a bit early this year. Their blooms often peak through snow which will fall in February & early March.
Thanks for stopping by and hope all's well in your world!

Both your flowers are beautiful, pretty colors.
Oh, both flowers so beautiful! It is warm here too, I think the grass has started to grow again.
Beautiful flowers! We're going to have an early spring - I hope we don't get an ill-timed burst of winter to kill the blooms.
