Our Red Kramer Camellia is full of buds. Red camellias are a symbol of wealth and so they are rightly grown in P&B's Garden. Some history I found on Monrovia's website lists that camellias represent longevity and faithfulness and have long been a primary floral component in Asian weddings.
Every year I force paper whites during the Thanksgiving weekend so I have a bouquet of fragrant winter beauties blooming in time for the Christmas holiday.
It is Sunday, November 22, 2009 and I cannot believe that we are just a few days away from Thanksgiving. As I walked around the garden today I found many of my favorite roses still in bloom.
What a beautiful day in the garden today !! Love the carpet of leaves and found this lizard in the mums. So happy to have Rachael home with us this weekend.
On Monday a very special person I know will begin a new opportunity. Today I had to reflect on portions of an old saying about people that come into your life for a reason, season or a lifetime.
