CAMILLIAS.
We are lucky to have several camellia bushes in our garden which are magnificent in early Spring.I have no idea of the names of the different varieties but I hope you enjoy the photos.
This bush has suddenly produced some almost white flowers – I wonder why as it is a very old bush.

This one is a beautiful shade of pink and very symmetrical.

Nestled in the glossy leaves they look so pretty.
This one is rather delicate and often has frost damage.
How about this for wonderful symmetry ?
And finally, a stripy one.

Hi JJ, your camellias are exquisite. I love all the various colors. Sorry you had a problem getting on the TF site. I see others have entered their link now so hopefully it was just a temporary glitch. I will go back and enter your link to these lovely flowers. Thanks so much for always supporting us at Today's Flowers. We appreciate it very much.

ReplyDeleteSuch lovely flowers! I have bought a Camillia plant , and I hope it will flower.
ReplyDeleteWonderful blossoms. I wish I could grow them here!
ReplyDeleteAs I began looking at your post I loved the mosaic but scrolling down was a real treat to see each individual bloom close up. Lovely!
ReplyDeleteI especially liked the pink with all the symmetry.

I like the symmetry too, and the macro of the pistils. I had trouble getting on last night and attributed it to the internet at our rental, but I guess it wasn't just me. Seems fine now.
ReplyDeleteWow pretty and glorious!
ReplyDeleteHappy new week JJ.
These are fantastic photos, and the camellia flowers are so beautiful!
ReplyDeleteYou are very lucky to able to grow so many camellias in your garden. We have alkaline soil so grow one or two in pots, which is not the same.
