bobyrd, your camelia is lovely. I wish I could be successful growing them here. The soil is not acid enough for them to do well.

This 'Sierra Starr™' (Calliandra) has been in the ground now for a little over 3 years, has grown rather quickly and blooms profusely. Besides the open blooms, there are 100s of bloom buds on it. The photo does not do it justice.
