What a gorgeous camellia David! Mine has been a failure again this year - bud drop despite keeping it well watered all through summer and autumn. I suspect the severe frosts all through February.
Love camellia waterlily! I first saw it at Wisley, my older sister finally sourced one at the Eden Project, then moved to a shadeless garden in Kent so I adopted it. It's fairly happy up my back passage, unfortunately still in a pot but has put roots down into the leaf litter. Flowers just about over here in South Devon though..

Many people have admired mine, figrat, but seemingly they are difficult to locate.

Camellia 'Water Lily'.
Managed it, though I think I need a little more practice.
Many thanks Daniel....a cabbage for you when they're ready!

I did find it a bit tricky as well-but also got ther in the end -the size thing flummoxed me as you then have to start all over again
Anyway- I can now say nice camellia
Elephant Hawk Moth Caterpillar
Just showing off now!
Thanks, Lorea...the pic doesn't show that it's about 10ft tall.
It's very old and flowers like that every year without fail.
Eddie -this just has to be a labour of love and a bit more
I don't like the way that caterpillar is eyeing me up
Ever seen a white peacock?
Love your new sculpture Eddie!
