I couldn't believe it when I spotted a full bloom on this camellia bush last week. This bush normally starts setting its buds in late fall/winter but the blooms wait for early March. It looked so odd to spot one full bloom on an otherwise resting bush. I'm glad I took the picture before Friday night's frost.

Lovely photo of your bloom. I noticed yesterday that even some of my snapdragons, the last bright colors of my fall garden, are dying now. I had an azalea that bloomed in September.
wow Camellia!!!!
It's wonderful,I have a nostalgic feeling now because it reminds me my dear mother, she loves this flower!
Thanks a lot for sharing!

Plants do some funny things. We had several Azaleas and some forsythia blooming a couple of weeks ago.
That's beautiful!
Mine is up too
A special gift and a lovely photograph.
That is so beautiful!
Delightful find and beautiful capture of this lovely Camellia blossom with raindrops. It's a strange year for flowers isn't it. My irises are coming up already ... MONTHS ahead of schedule. It worries me for Spring.
Hugs and blessings,
Hi Carver--I've seen camellias do that in Seattle, I think because our weather can get unexpectedly warm and then cold and rainy again.
They usually don't last.
This one is gorgeous. I'm nostalgic about camellias too, because we had a bush by the back porch when I was a kid.
Lovely shy Camaellia blossom. That flower is so "cute" hiding behind those leaves.

What a weird year for weather! The camellia is such a lovely shade of pink.
I posted pink camellias today too. I'm in Virginia. Where are you?
A beautiful, modest blossom. Gorgeous.
