White Camelia

How pristine is that, in this awful weather.

Thank you Homebird.

Its up against my house by the kitchen where its a sheltered position thank you Siris.

That is beautiful. As Siris said, so pristine.

Thanks ladies.

Meadowland I ve been told it damages house foundations so it going to have to be moved.

Yes good idea I hope it survives the move for you.

Penny,

Wow! That's a gorgeous flower! Most Camellia trees here start flowering in November and usually are winding down in April.

Thank you Andy your seasons must be the opposite to ours then.

Yes, even when they flower in November sometimes they get burned by the very hot, extremely dry Santa Ana Winds.

I can imagine they do as Camelias like shade all mine are in the shade or afternoon sun.

Yes, I can tell they have excellent growing conditions.

Its just such a shame your heat burn s them over there.

If they're grown on the north side of a building they usually do pretty well. However, very hot, dry Santa Ana Wind season in from October through April, it overlaps winter here.

Yes north would be best would nt it cooler.
That hot dry westher must play havoc with plants there.
