Camelia Yuletide
This'll be my first ever attempt at growing a Camelia, and I went with Yuletide for the red blooms with big yellow centers during December and January. It needs to be protected from dry winds, so our Santa Anas are a concern. I'm going to try blanketing the plant for protection as needed. We'll see. . .

Pink — Gotta Be Pink — Mums

When mom and dad were here, I think I drove them both a little nuts shopping for pink mums for this terra-cotta colored pot. They had to be this color pink, and nobody seemed to have a healthy plant this color, so we kept on looking. Eventual success was tendered by Do It Center in Tujunga. I've been quite pleased, especially during breakfasts on the patio, and I insist that it was worth the effort to find flowers of the correct color. Here's the plant one and two weeks later.
