| I have been enjoying the many Camellia sasanquas blooming, but I have especially enjoyed the sasanqua 'Leslie Ann'. The flowers of this variety open up first as a formal double like the picture below that I took today. It is one of the few sasanquas with a border around each petal. This variety has to be one of my very favorites.

| Beautiful! What more can I say? The water droplet is perfection. Unfortunately it's not hardy in my area. If I had any more room to bring in plants for winter I would try it in a container but my sunroom is chock full and I've had to put one large plant in my attic and three large cymbidium orchids in the basement. |

| That is truly lovely. Do you by chance know a source for it? |

| Donna, You should be able to find 'Leslie Ann' at a number of Camellia Nurseries. I am attaching the link to the Camellia Web Marketplace. Check out some of the sources there. |
Here is a link that might be useful: Camellia Web Marketplace

| C. s. 'Leslie Ann' does well for me. I think it came from Camellia Forest Nursery in chapel Hill. |
