It is 31 January and I have a camelia Donation
which has started to flower.
I have never known weather like this in over
50 years of gardening.

Ours have been flowering well too but a few years ago some were flowering
from November and that wasn't the autumn one either. Never got it that early
again.

For other unseasonal flowers, I was on the local snowdrop walk this
afternoon, and apart from the usual winter flowers (Acacia dealbata,
Daphne bholua, Sarcococca, ...) there were also in flower a mophead
Hydrangea, a rose, and some Schizostylis. I saw a Lavatera 'Barnsley'
(mostly reverted) still in flower elsewhere on Monday.

Stewart, so glad I have found you - I knew I had heard the name
somewhere! I'm compiling info on around 100 plants for a portfolio I
am doing for a course. I was looking at different lavatera cultivars
and I found a very interesting page, with your name as copyright on
it. Could I possibly ask you permission to reproduce the series of
images, from 'barnsley to rosea' and quote your name naturally on the
side? It's only for me and my college. Thank you.
