Yes, katarina Camellias grow very well. They start flowering now, and the latest end in spring. Japonicas do well in the shade, otherwise the flowers burn or do not open at all. I like best Sasanquas they are easy to grow even in full sun. they are always the first to bloom and the trees burst with buds.Lavender and Vanilla Friends of the Gardenshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05403418150146893599noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1909467422493402854.post-17619281207151299232008-04-28T06:59:00.000+10:002008-04-28T06:59:00.000+10:00jean bradbury, thank you.

I love soft, colours, but here they tend to dissapear in summer when the sunlight is very white and blinding. I have a few Gardenias with glistening white flowers but they have to sit deep in the shade to get the impact.Lavender and Vanilla Friends of the Gardenshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05403418150146893599noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1909467422493402854.post-68177880504284736902008-04-28T06:42:00.000+10:002008-04-28T06:42:00.000+10:00rurality, Karen hi, thank you for your comment.

In my northern cold climate garden, orange coloured blossoms look jarring to me. Yet in your post on orange blooms, they look absolutely gorgeous and they light up the surroundings.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1909467422493402854.post-81839883258232831852008-04-28T00:05:00.000+10:002008-04-28T00:05:00.000+10:00Wow what a different landscape than the one I'm fa...Wow what a different landscape than the one I'm familiar with.
