Pink Japanese Camellia Buds Japonica

Don't ask me how this Japanese Camellia has so many buds for this time of year. I originally planted it in a different area. It had a lot of buds but never was I able to see even the slightest color on them like now. The tips of the leaves were burnt and the buds sadly fell off one by one!

After some months I realized it had been planted in an area that was too damp and too sunny. Japanese Camellia does better in shade and moist soil, so I moved it to a dryer more shadier area.

These pictures were taken about a week and a half ago when we had a lot of rain. Today, there are some blooms on them already so I am able to see that it's pink-orange in color. I am looking forward to the spring when it should flourish even more because I believe I had found a better home for my Japanese Camellia.

  10. I've seen these, but I've never grown them personally. They produce an abundance of buds if looked after properly. All the best with yours.
