I'm working hard not to channel the Grumpy Gardner when you ask, "What does it mean if my camellia buds drop off in January?" by replying, "It means you'll have fewer blooms." Of course, you won't ...

Camellias are popular evergreen plants known for their winter blooms and glossy leaves. Proper care includes planting in acidic soil with morning sun, regular watering, and fertilizing after blooming.

I had a lady email a photo of a beautiful camellia bloom last week. It’s hard to believe that there are some shrubs blooming now even with the crazy weather we’ve experienced over the past few months.
