Sunnyside / George Adams



I got this one from Nuccio`s . Not sure if it will actually prove hardy here. It did great this year. But this winter was hardly a test.
It is fun to experiment.........unless the experiment fails :( .....we will see

I found this camellia on a mailorder site online. It looks promising, I love red and white variegated flowers, and have been trying to get this striped kind for a while. The plant is too small to plant out yet. But it is supposed to be hardy to zone 7
