Camelias

by cjohnson

Well, the garden is still rather dormant in several places, but it seems that the camelia tree/bush by the side of the house can be relied upon to put on a show in Winter and early Spring:

Must start work on several aspects of the garden next weekend to get ready for Spring!

    Mmmm… Camelias! Are these ones scented? I’ve come across pink ones before which have an heavenly fragrance.

    Here, it is grey and miserable :(

    erc: – Hi! I think that they might not be as powerfully scented as the pink ones. I don’t have any pink ones on hand to compare to…….
