Veeeery pretty, Dave. And the shrub looks healthy. One question. What is that metal thingy in the picture? Some form of plant name tag?

Yes, on the right? The only way I can keep plants labeled is with aluminum plant tags. You 'etch' in the name with a hard pencil. Black markers fade with time.

The long-established camellia collection at the US National Arboretum in Washington, DC was decimated awhile back by a cold winter.

During the coldest-in-30-years 1990 winter here some japonicas got burnt by similar - and somewhat colder - temperatures.

This winter I am again seeing a bit of damage to some camellias, although not like 1990. Judging from the damage to various plants it looks like many places had temps in the teens.
