I discovered 2 camelia bushes under a lot of weeds when I moved in here 4 years ago, I do nothing with them, and they flower every year..they do need a lot of water to swell the flower buds, but thats as much as I know about them...

Re: Camelia...

Thanks for that Moli I think they are a lovely flower and it's a bonus that they flower so early when not much else is in bloom...

Re: Camelia...

I always thought we had limey soil but next door have a camelia so I bought one. its too small at the moment to do anything but I'm hoping they don't all need acidic soil. I love them, yours is beautiful, they always look so regal.
