My camellia (sasanqua type) does pretty well until you get under
twenty degrees.  It kills the blooms, but the plant lives fine.  I'm
watering the heck out of it now that the buds for this winter are
trying to form.  How about putting it in a pot on casters and wheeling
it in and out?  Kind of like I do w/ the hibiscus plants?   Just a
thought.
