bring it on down now...

Would all these be in your garden? Can you give us names for each? I especially like the one on the bottom left.

The ones I know for certain by name are the 2 on the bottom.

Left is Marie Bracey and right is Mathotiana.
They are from various locations around town. I carry my camera because the camellias are shouting in Charleston! Can you hear them??

Outstanding pictures btw! You always have beautiful pictures. Your neighbors must really be into gardening too! I have been watching around my area for japonicas in bloom and there aren't too many right now. I have several small ones myself but no flowers now. I have a single bud on a Higo camellia that is getting fatter by the day. As I drove up the driveway this evening I thought I could see a little color at the tip of the bud! I've had this plant for a little over two years now and in that time have had only two flowers, but they are gorgeous, so its worth it!
