Hi there, wondering if you guys could clarify something for me.

I currently have two cold hardy camellias planted close to our garage, one fall blooming Frost Princess and a spring blooming April Tryst. The garage is old and seperate from the house and is brick. I planted them there since they would be sheilded from any northern winds and afternoon sun, since it's a southeast exposure, however now I'm reading that morning sun is bad for camellias? Is that true?

It's not like it gets a ton of sun in that spot, it's quite shady due to a type of spreading pine tree that also grows along side it and because of our large weeping cherry tree.

Should I move them? I planted Frost Princess last year and it survived our winter and now has small buds that I guess will be opening within a month or so, and I bought April Tryst this year in bloom and it seems to have adjusted just fine..I think also has buds.

Should I move them or am I just blowing something out of proportion, I haven't grown camellias before last year.

Thanks!

Max
