My father in law gave me a beautiful one years ago and it didn't live a year. I was so disappointed. I sure could use some of those blooms right about now.
ReplyDeleteHi Susan! The camellias are lovely. I hope mine are blooming when I get back to Washington next week...
ReplyDeleteIt's nice to see such a beautiful and colorful flower. The flowers around here are long gone. These are very nice pictures.
ReplyDeleteHi Susan,
ReplyDeleteOh those camellias are so pretty. I had three big shrubs, and they ALL died. Planted in the wrong place, I think. I would love to have some pretty variated ones like that pink and white....love a double blossom one too, in white I think. Guess I should head over to the garden center soon! When this storm subsides....
Thanks for hosting outdoor Wed., come see the stormy ocean!

I love all your photos but I especially favor the last photo...that is the prettiest of them all!
ReplyDeleteThanks for hosting Outdoor Wednesday.
I did not know they bloom now! We have had so near zero forever that I'll be lucky if anything survives this! I have not been here in a while because I have not been outside, lol!! Love the camellias, and the "Fried Green Tomatoes" post. Amazing photos...
ReplyDeleteThose camellias are so pretty. I wish it was warm enough for flowers to be blooming here! We're expecting snow and it's freezing!!! Spring can't come soon enough for me!
ReplyDeleteOh you are so lucky to have flowers to see even if they aren't in your own backyard. We have alot of drab greyness. Oh how I need t see some color. Thanks for the pick me up. Those camelias are gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteYour camilias are gorgeous! They remind me of my grandmothers. Good memories. Come see my OW outdoor adventure vacation.
ReplyDeleteLeigh
Oh wow - I love the white one with the pink edging. It looks like candy :)

Beautiful camellias! Mine are blooming now too. You reminded me to go out and pick them. I like to float them in a bowl. Thanks for hosting Outdoor Wednesday again. --Delores
ReplyDeleteJ'adore Camelias!
ReplyDeleteHow beautiful. I am so anxious for spring. Looking forward to warmer days and more beautiful flowers.
ReplyDeleteI love all these, but the variegated is breathtaking!
ReplyDeleteMy cousin loves Camellias, so much I designed a pair of tennis shoes covered with them. She loves those too! lol
Beautiful and delightful.
ReplyDeleteHappy outdoor!
NOW WAY, REALLY? ALREADY? Just Gorgeous! We're knee deep in snow and cold. Cindy

Oh they do look pretty. We don't have anything close to flowers blooming around here.
ReplyDeleteThese are so beautiful Susan. I'm sure you were thrilled to see them blooming, and can't wait for yours to bloom too. The variegated one is my favorite. Kathy
ReplyDeleteIt sure is a lovely flower! Looking forward to seeing pictures when your Camellias flower!
ReplyDeleteThese are so beautiful. I don;t know if these do well out in West Texas or not. Such a beautiful flower.
ReplyDeleteDear Susan, I love camellias and yours are breathtaking. I once lived in Gainesville, Fl. while my dh finished college and while taking a walk in my neighborhood, I came across a huge number of camellia bushes in someones back yard. A walking path was behind his home. I saw the most gorgeous camellias there. As I was admiring them, an elderly man came out to say hello. He was famous for his camellia garden and had been written up in the paper, which I just happened to read, a couple days before. We became good friends and he gave me camellias for my home the rest of the time they bloomed that winter. You just brought back a memory I haven't thought about in years. That was in 1963. Thanks for sharing your gorgeous camellias and for the memory too.
ReplyDeleteHugs, Jeanne
Beautiful camillias! The two tones ones are extraordinary!
ReplyDeleteLove camellia flowers, especially in this pink colors!
ReplyDeleteI just cannot imagine what it would be like to see such beautiful blossoms in January! In fact, I don't think I have ever seen a real camellia blossom, they are gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteThank you once again for being our OW hostess, I look forward each week to seeing the beauty of the outdoors through other's eyes and lenses.
What BEAUTIFUL camellias ... lovely color variations!
ReplyDeleteHugs and blessings,
Beautiful roses! The colors are just fantastic.
ReplyDeleteThose are some of the most beautiful camellias I have seen. Wish they were in my yard.

ReplyDeleteOh I am so jealous, the only things green around here are evergreens :), but this gives me hope that spring is around the corner.
ReplyDeleteThanks for hosting such a great party.
Oh my gosh, Susan, the camellias are so beautiful! It will be quite a long time before I see anything blooming in Michigan! Spring can't arrive fast enough for me!
ReplyDeletexoxo...Kathy
When I was growing up in California we had a huge camellia bush. It would get beautiful flowers like the first one on your post. i loved it!
ReplyDeleteWonderful outdoor photos - makes one long for spring!!!
ReplyDeleteSusan Camellias are beautiful....I don't think we will have any blooms any time soon. My plants look really bad, but these you are showing are beautiful.
ReplyDeleteBarbara
These are so exotic to me. So gorgeous. I knew a woman by the name of this flower. Now I understand her mother's choice!
ReplyDeleteYour flowers are absolutely gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteI just found you from another GA blogger - I'm a GA blogger too - Marietta area.
Sandie
I'm a little late linking up, but I added mine to your list.
ReplyDeleteLove your rose photos.
Oh, I love that last one!
ReplyDeleteWe have pink trees here in our condo that are in bloom that normally bloom in the spring so perhaps it is Spring and I do not know it:) I had no idea there was a southern groundhog. I only thought it was the groundhog called Punsatonky Phil (I have no idea how to spell it) from PA:) I got a laugh when I read this southern groundhogs name...too cute!
