Re: camellia!

C. sasanqua. They are less cold hardy than C. japonica. They're also used as in espaliered screens and, interestingly, as a ground cover, owing to their sprawling growth habit.

If it's a sasquen-something or another it might be, if it's a japonica (sp?) it'll bloom later on.

Hmmmmm........We just installed a hardy Camellia this summer. It grew 6

inches in the pot and had buds forming by the time I got someone to plant

it. Maybe I should go see if it's blooming.

Pam, that's one of my favorite parts of fall. My 'Cotton Candy' Camellia

is

just starting to bloom. It's truly stunning. I'm glad to hear yours is

too!



And that Sugar is getting ready for winter! ;-)

It's been a long time since our last cold season. I nearly forgot two of

the only things I like about it. My camellia is starting to bloom today

and Sugar is putting on her most luxurious winter coat. After petting

Jesse's cats they almost feel hairless when I pet Sugar w/ her ever

thickening pelt. She must be part Maine Coon is all I can figure. And my

camellia is gorgeous, beautiful double deep rose pink flowers. That's my

compensation for the passing of summer I suppose. Rosemary is blooming

now too - lovely!
