Today's Flowers: White Camellia now and then

The first shot below is one I took of my white camellias buds this week. Hopefully when they bloom in spring they won't have too many brown spots.

The next two shots are from my archives and show my white camellias during the spring of 2009.

I remember last year I worried about brown spots too but they ended up doing quite well.

Oh, your camellias are so beautiful. I'd love to have them in my garden too. I like all your photos but especially the second one.

My grandmother used to float a camellia blossom in a china dish on her coffee table. Thanks for the memory!

They are beautiful!
Most of your bad winter should be over or at least very soon.
Look forward to a shot of that bud in bloom. :)

What perfect camelias! My neighbours have a white camelia tree, which is blooming now, but the flowers are covered in brown spots, like rust.
