Hi Sarahm, keep your fingers crossed. It looks very healthy. We have a pink camellia in the ground that is now huge and flowered after 5 years. We have 2 in pots, that are 2 years old and haven't flowered yet. Yours looks like it has about a dozen flower buds on it .... white or cream maybe? I believe if you have a dry summer, if you don't water the Camellia, it won't flower the following year. Obviously don't overwater it.
