Camellia - Donation


Pink Camellia 'Donation' in perfect condition today 31 March. It's cold but as there have been no frosts, the blooms are in beautiful condition. The plant was originally grown in a pot, but when we moved 2 years ago it was given a new home in the shade of a wall. It obviously loves the position, although the soil is not naturally acid.
Last summer fed with Miracle-Gro Azalea, Camellia and Rhododendron Slow Release Plant Food, so leaves rich dark green. The only shame is that most of the flowers point downwards and hide their faces.
