Author Message   Takeuchi  Posted on Wednesday, April 25, 2007 - 02:01 pm EST :    I have an uniquely variegated flower of camellia in my garden. The name is "Tsurikagari" of which meaning is "bonfire on the fishing boat on the dark sea". The white spots are as if drawn by a brush or splashed with white paint. I like this flower the most among my collection. This variety is rather difficult to propagate by cuttings.

Each flower must be unique. Galanthophile - Ann (Northern England), Zone "8"   Ton_hannink  My Garden Posted on Wednesday, April 25, 2007 - 03:42 pm EST :    Beautiful flower.

Loretta - NJ, Zone "6"   Takeuchi  Posted on Friday, April 27, 2007 - 02:51 pm EST :    I am very happy to know that we all are sympathized with the beauty of this camellia. To plant "Tsurikagari" is heard to be prosperous about 100 years ago, but it is rather difficult to get variety for the collectors now in Japan. Thank you. Takeuchi - Saitama-Ken, Zone "8b~9a"
