Camellias, new foliage discoloration.

Hello all.

First time visitor here and I'm hoping you may be able to help me please.

I have two well established camellias in my back garden.

They look like they've been the for years and in the 3 years I've lived in this house I have never seen this discolouration before.

I think it might be Gall but looking for a more educated opinion. Thank you.

P.s. I'm in England, it's been really damp/wet for months now if that has any bearing on things.

 

It looks OK to me. The new foliage is usually a different colour to the old, and cold temps can tint it with a pink flush. The only time you need to worry is when it goes yellow, which indicates chlorosis. Easily corrected with an ericaceous feed or sequestered iron.

 

Mine looks a bit like that too having been covered in flowers for about four months since December. Just a seasonal adjustment, I wouldn’t be worried.

 

Looks fairly normal to me.

 

Hi sorry for the late reply, that's good to hear and looking at the comments it looks like it's a seasonal change, maybe I just never noticed it before . I'll keep an eye just incase and refer back to the collective knowledge if it changes.

 

It is more noticeable where I am this year because we have had such a wet winter and I think the extra water has fuelled lush growth.
