Brucefields Yellow and a view of them all. I have E G Waterhouse in the middle but this one is a bit late and only has flowers at the top that gets the sunshine!

They look absolutely beautiful,how old are they.

I look forward to your camellias every year

Just beautiful!

Two of mine froze badly in this past extreme winter. I hope they have survived at all.

My mother started all of these plants off in pots and she had them for many years before I inherited them so they will be 20 - 25 years old! They are a very special reminder of her for me each year.

What a wonderful sight indeed!
My camelias haven't been very happy with our winter this year..
Except Jury's Yellow, which makes my days this spring!

Ann, your camellias are a beautiful sight. How tall is Debbie now? I saw one recently at Newby Hall, about 12 or 13 ft high. Up until then, I hadn't realized just how tall it can get.

Hi Jane, Debbie is about 8-9 feet now. The tallest is E G Waterhouse which is easily 12 feet. I hope you are enjoying your plants
