Can anyone identify this which is growing quite healthily on my ten year old camellia? This is the first one I have noticed.

Camelias do have seed pods. Or more likely its a gall.

Definitely a seed pod. We see them often on the Camellias at Bodnant Garden. When they are ripe and split open you can sow the seeds and you never know you may get a nice new variety.........in 5 to 7 years time!

that's interesting I often wondered what they were on mine, didnt seem to do any harm and seemed to just disappear.
