Weekend Reflections...Winter Flowers
~~
It's time to share our Weekend Reflections...
~~
Again, I will show you what's on my marble shelf in our entrance hall.
Red Camellias
When winter comes and lingers on- making most things dead and brown in north Florida- that's when the Camellias start their show! They bring me joy to these gloomy days!
I picked these yesterday from the 3 red bushes we have out front. To get a feel of the size of these bushes/trees... if I were in this picture I'd not come more than half way up on this biggest one!
(well...but I am only 5 ft tall!-lol)
Anyway, they grow BIG and have a LOT of flowers....but are only in bloom for a short time!
We also have a pale pink one but it is always a little bit later with it's blooms! (I mean, just a few days) Have a pure white one and a peachy color one in the back yard...new plants which only have had a few blooms each the past year or so! The white one is blooming now, too, but I haven't cut any of those yet.
