Our Camellia sasanqua Narumi-gata is just covered in flowers. It's scented
too - real bonus. I do recommend this one to anyone wanting an early
flowering one.
A friend of ours has one. Not sure if it's Narumi-gata, but certainly
c. sasanqua of some sort and judging by the seedlings that spring up
around it, it frequently sets viable seed.


I'm certainly going to give it a try. Is there anything else that
flowers this late/early?


If it helps, our Daphne bholua is in full bloom now.


Many thanks. Having a small front garden in a built up area I like to
rotate pots and tubs so there's always something to brighten the place up.
