While I really do appreciate beautiful flowers and gardens, my own skills in that area are sadly lacking, so I was positively thrilled to have grown these. Having lived in the cooler region of the Adelaide HIlls for a time where a number of different coloured camellias graced my property, I was surprised that this plant did so well in the warmer climate of the lower Plains.
Camellias are rather hardy and can be grown in warmer climates as long as they are mostly in shade. We have quite a few in my town.
