Went to Wyevale and got a stainless steel border spade and fork, on
offer to gardening club members 2 for the price of one.
Whilst there I had a quick look round and saw a large selection of
Camellia Sasanqua, Not one that I know, a lot of them in flower, also
what I will describe as "Normal" camelia in heavy bud, a lot showing
colour.

I thought you had a sticky "send" button again! Then I noticed the
minor amendments...

Doesn't your newsreader (Gravity?) allow you to cancel posts?

As to your message, I've noticed quite a few Camellias in flower in
garden centres, although most are under cover (maybe those outside have
been recently moved out). Isn't it a bit early even for "early"
Camellias to be out? Or is it just the odd weather we're having?
