Camellias in Bloom...

Here are some new photos of the camellias in our garden taken recently.  The light pink variety above is a  "Debutante Camellia".  It blooms early in the winter and fills the yard with gorgeous tissue-paper-like blossoms and is a good choice for a splash of delicate color in the cool winter months.  The brighter pink one below is an old, tried and true flower I call the "supercamellia".  I have no idea what kind it is, but it is virtually indestructible!  It lived in a cracked blue pot for the first few years of our marriage and has been sunburned, windburned, nearly drowned, snail-infested, moved to practically every location in the yard, and still it survives and brings forth these lush gorgeous flowers every February.  What miracles nature provides...
