Pink Camellia in Bloom

Captured last Spring in
the Woodland Garden.

Camellias grow to fine trees in
Ireland,
given time and tender care.

Very nice shot! Doesn't look quite like the camelias I'm used to.

Thanks. I'm glad you like it.

I'm not particularly up to speed on the vast number of Camellia flowers that are hybridized yearly.

This is a particularly free-flowering and healthy tree that makes a walk in it's woodland habitat think one is in the Himalyas.

Also, thank you for the post to Flickr.
I worked out that I had not moderated your comments here and they are now visible.
