I thought I'd take a picture in our yard and rub it in a little! It was at freezing overnight and cool today but this camelia had been blooming over 2 weeks now!

Gorgeous!

We rented a house once that had Camellia bushes at the entry that were nearly 6 feet tall.

LOL, well reading all those temp posts made me cold, I thought I'd try to warm y'all up!


MSD that one is over 7 ft tall, we've got a couple more but they aren't blooming as well yet. We're starting to see a little color from the azaleas too. All of the "tulip trees" (Japanese Magnolias) in town are loaded with blooms!

Wow! The leaves are so glossy and green too- what a magnificent specimen.

When we lived in Orange County, I had white, pink, and burgundy Camellias. I loved them.

 

[Frosted Rabbits]

Ah, the smell of Camellias on a warm evening breeze AH- CHOOO!

Very cold and sunny here this morning... but not much wind, thank goodness.

I'm running out of winter! It'll be in the 70s today, and I have only a few more weeks' chance to get in some crisp temps and maybe some snow! :weep:

 

[MamaSheepdog]

Mid forties here and raining a bit.

Time for me to fill a cooler with new snow and send it, huh?

 

[MaggieJ]

You've got snow, Terry? Very little left here... just crusts where the drifts were. The geese are happy... they can still graze.

We have a camellia "tree" -- it is a good 20ft tall and we've trimmed it around the bottom so it looks like a tree. It is such a lovely thing...I get a face full of flowers every time I walk to the rabbit shed.

We've got a pretty tall one ourselves, but it's a fall blooming one.
