    How wonderful to have Autumn flowering Camellias, we only have the ones that start flowering in February.

    Beautiful John. I’m enjoying one too now and even found one odd flower on the ‘Yuletide.’

      I haven’t planted ‘Yuletide’ here, but had three in my Chapel Hill garden that grew to very large proportions…covered with flowers. Quite attractive. I hope yours does as well.
