My Autumn camellias have started flowering, I prefer these to the spring ones, they dont get caught by the frost so much.

Wow, this reminds me of the Camellias blooming in April went I visited my son in Sydney. I wonder if they would bloom up here in the north east now?

Janey, ehem...I think you'll find you are not even slightly north!!! lol....I laugh every time I see the news and they refer to everywhere north of the Wash as 'the north east'. Now I live in Eastern Scotland and even we are not in the 'north east' which begins at Aberdeen..ish!!! Even if we're talking England, the north starts about Whitby I reckon! I have a Camellia Sas. in the garden and it's growing beautifully. First year, so no flowers yet, but it's growing. Another one, very small in the greenhouse. I may bring it in to the conservatory. I think they would do really well in there.......ooops, sorry, just remembered your concrete at the back! Another reason for a conservatory campaign.....:)))) No, but seriously, I think you might be ok with a sas. in a sheltered warm spot against your lovely wall......
