I would start with:
Alba Plena
C. tunghinensis
Pink Perfection
Glen 40
Eleanor McCown Then I would choose 15 more different ones and give them to my three neighbors to be planted near the boundary with my house. Hee hee hee..... I know, I know, it's cheating. Oh well. |

These five Camellias, they are some of my favorites. When we buy several camellias, for our garden, we have to of worrying that his flowerings, do not take place (are not produced) at the same time. It is good that it is alternated, his colouring flowering, during the autumns months, Winter and Spring.
Regards.

| Here is 'Suzhou Embroidery'. a small size formal camellia flower. From a distance you only see yellowish glow at center of the flower. If you close up, you will see the yellowish petal vines. The outer petals are white. |
