Gita your camellia is lovely. Mine bloomed all winter inside. That is so funny. They are outside now and will no doubt just grow and not bloom again until they come inside in the Fall. They do get that brown scum (I forget what it is called) every spring before they go outside. It is almost impossible to get it off but now they are clean again and green as can be.

The bougainvillea is blooming and so is the mandivilla, of course the easter cactus is still pretty as ever. My African Gardenia is blooming and yesterday when the State Inspector came around I thought he was going to take it with him. He just loved it and he told me to be sure and propagate it. It has a wonderful aroma and is such a wonderful houseplant. He always likes to come in the house and see the stock plants and birds. He is from Jamaca and really has an accent, but he works for the State of NJ as an inspector of Nurseries.
Here is a shot of the blooms on the AG. It blooms all year.
