The vase this week is a simple one which doesn't really require me to say much. The camellia flower is from a small camellia I have growing in a pot. It is a plant I rescued from one of those 'bargain' areas in a nursery and planted out in the garden. However, it was apparently unhappy as the leaves were very yellow, despite me having another very healthy camellia near by. So like many a good gardener before me I dug it up and put it in a pot with lots of ericaceous compost and I have been rewarded with healthy glossy leaves and half a dozen or so of these sumptuous pink blooms.
