      The first of my Camellias are flowering.

      Camellia Extravaganza - the blooms are enormous, almost as big as my hand ...

      Camellia Debutante ...

          This one was in the garden when I arrived so I don't know it's name

          It's only a baby but has put on a lot of growth in the last year, so I'm really pleased :smile:

              And here's Bob's Tinsie today by the front door. Had a full 3 day north east gale in it's face but not the least bothered by it and more blooms coming out now it's a bit warmer:

                Slightly green about the gills with these photos. I do grow Camellias (about 6 different ones). Bonkers really as more often than not late frosts get the flowers or the flaming herd of deer munch them. Lovely to see all yours tho. Keep the photos coming
