First one is a classic from Japan, I think it is Tama-No-Ura. It was found growing in the wild by a charcoal burner in 1947 on an island by that name in Nagasaki Prefecture. Nuccio's introduced it to the US trade in 1975.

All it takes is one fragrant variety to make the whole greenhouse smell wonderful. They had 'Fragrant Pink' on sale. I like it that camellias don't seem to bother my allergies, so that's probably true for other people too. White doubles are considered to be classics. I took a lot of shots of CW Wilson on several plants.
