Welcome to my zone 9 garden. My roots are deeply planted in the sandy soil of sub-tropical central Florida, where the summers are long and hot, but the rest of the year is paradise!
Such beautiful camellias and such a nice photo arrangement. I enjoyed meeting you and hope you were able to get a nice pineapple guava. The nursery is small but they do have some hard to find plants. I can't wait to get to planting my bodacious bounty of new plants! "I'm sure they will all grow well in my garden!"
Kimberly...You're right - they are romantic. They always remind me of the deep south.
Kay...I, too, enjoyed meeting you and Meems. It's fun to get together with like-minded folks. I'm sure your plants will do well in your garden - as will mind :) - and I look forward to seeing them in future posts. I'm glad the rain held out long enough for us. Have a great weekend.
I love camellias so much! (I'm sure you've noticed that if you read my blog.) It was my vote on Nell Jean's "romantic flowers" poll. And the ones in my garden have a beautiful scent to add to the pleasure.
Ami...Thanks, the pink camellia is just so soft...I love it.
Floridagirl...I guess I better get up close and sniff my camellias to see if they are scented, too. Pretty and scented...you can't ask for more in a flower.
I'm in the state of "Seeing Red" these days! Every window I look out of I "See Red" and it's wonderful!! ...

Welcome to Ma Petit Jardin ~
"My little garden" is a mere 1/8 of an acre of garden space. It was chosen with the intention to simplify and create my own "little" piece of paradise.
Don't let its diminutive size fool you. My plans for this "petit" space include a haven for a variety of wildlife, a kitchen garden, and of course, plenty of bold Florida foliage and cottage flowers.
This won't be "gardening as usual." It's going to take a little creativity and "outside of the box" thinking, and I'm definitely up for that.

Gorgeous camellias! That pink color is just amazing. Have a good weekend, and happy Valentine's day!
