This is about life in my gardens. One is an acre on a hillside in Laguna Beach, California and the other is an acre in San Juan Capistrano, California.

The First Camellias
The first camellias of the season are opening. So lovely!
Beautiful...so delicate and pure! My camellia barely survived last winter (zone 6 hardy)and it was so slow to grow this summer that it didn't set any buds. I'm determined to protect it well this winter and maybe it'll reward me with flowers this time next year...fingers crossed! Enjoy yours! Lynn

Some of our camellias are already done over here.
ReplyDeleteHow beautiful. I just love the way the delicate white petals look next to the bright yellow center.
ReplyDeleteSo lovely! This is one of my favorites flowers. Wish I could grow them here.
