This camellia blossom gives me so much hope for spring. Our 8-foot-tall camellia bush is loaded with flowerlets that will deliver vibrant red flowers with powdery yellow centers.
Budding Winter
The largest camellia bushes I remember made a hedge dividing my grandmother's front yard from the neighbor's on one side. The dark soil beneath was cool and dry and the perfect play space for young cousin shenanigans. When the lavish flowers opened they, too, were cool to the touch. My grandmother would allow us to cut a few of the hefty blossoms for her crystal bowl.
