| Hello,
I know from a previous post someone said getting Valentine Day was difficult, but the post was a few years old and I'm hoping the variety has become more commonly sold. I'd love to find a plant if anyone knows of somewhere that has it for sale. Thanks!

| Valentine Day what? Roses? Tulips? Hydrangeas? These kinds of variety names are used for all sort of plants. |

| Sorry. I thought I was in the perennials forum! I checked my Nuccios Nursery catalog. They have Valentines Day listed. |

| Hi Donna, Thanks for looking for me. I just got my Nuccio's catalog this weekend and my head is spinning and my pocketbook is wincing! |

Dear seachellelee,
_Camellia japonica_ 'Valentine's Daÿ' and _Camellia japonica_ 'Valentine's Day Variegated' are also available from Bob Wines' Nursery in Florida. Here is the contact information: Bob Wines Nursery, 2610 SE 38th Street, Ocala, FL, 34480, (352) 629-5766. Robert and Bob Wines and Laurie Williams are the proprietors. Bob Wines Nursery specializes in new and old camellia varieties. They've been in business since 1952. Bob Wines Nursery is a retail business, and they ship nationwide. I don't think they have a print catalog; however, they do have an electronic catalog which they'll send you by way of an e-mail attachment. |

| This is a correction of my earlier posting: The 'Valentine's Day' available from Bob Wines Nursery is a _Camellia reticulata_, not a _Camellia japonica_. Sorry for the confusion. |

| Hi Jay, Thanks for the information. Actually, I believe 'Valentine Day' is a reticulata hybrid, so Bob Wines might have the one I'm looking for. I'll have to check them out! Have a great day! |
