Red Camellia

At home

I love seeing this camellia in flower, we can see it from our bedroom and on wintry
overcast rainy days it lifts the spirits. This is one of the first blooms for 2016
and its only partly opened up yet.

I am near the end of rose pruning, feeling a bit weary, but I sleep very well after
the long hours in the garden. :) There is one little Scots rose that is in flower
right now, I think it has got confused with our strange weather! I'm not
bothering to take the photo... its such a tiny thing and looks better in the garden
than it does on the computer screen.
