Crinoline Camellia
Winter is still over a month away, though its effects are becoming more evident beginning this week. I've prepared gardens such as my cactus garden for the coming cold. While many of the cacti can handle far below freezing temperatures, some of the rarer cacti are quite sensitive to the cold. I erect a greenhouse over them for the winter with an oil-filled heater to keep them cozy. Other plants, like the chrysanthemum and camellias, have no fear of such times, "Winter? Bring it on!" This camellia looks like gold-frilled crinoline with a splash of pink. Pleasure in small graces... take 'em when you can.
