Camellia x 'Yuletide'

I have decided the same! Ours get lots of rain on them and seem to thrive because of it!!
Unlike me!! 💦💦☔️

Yes, I keep the camellias well-watered as they're all in pots. One, though, hasn't flowered in 2 years. No idea what's wrong with it. May well be on its way out!

No, Klahanie, it was a red one (unnamed) that I bought which flowered really well the first 2 years, now nothing! The leaves are bright and green and all are treated the same, so a good talking to is required! Nuccio is full of buds.
How's your 'Elsie' recovering?

I'll keep my fingers crossed for rapid growth, Klahanie.

That’s a pretty coloured camellia, Ange, love it! Fingers crossed for more blooms too!

Yes, Kate, I think I fell for a good 'un for once!
