Meanwhile back at the old house I have one that has reached the second story of my house and blooming its heart out. I just can't figure it out.

But I've only known them in Louisiana and Texas. It was always the azaleas we had to worry about.

Snowdrops and hellebores are flowering already and crocuses are about to. I have had one camellia japonica in flower since November, one has fat buds and one is an April flowering, still with small buds. We have had one frost night, that’s all. I really don’t want any more :-)<br />Love ‘Yuletide’, it’s on my wish list!HELENEhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16112289914239038835noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8765612855992884633.post-76306941350474109862015-12-17T16:24:31.804-05:002015-12-17T16:24:31.804-05:00Happy GBBD!

The grass is still greenish. My pleasure is cut by my fears of global warming.Sarah Laurencehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00423008641739156182noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8765612855992884633.post-42280034661445535152015-12-16T22:13:03.127-05:002015-12-16T22:13:03.127-05:00Les, I love those camellias.

I t...Oh gosh, I'm drooling over your Camellias. I tried growing one as a potted plant a couple of years ago and failed. I might try again (bringing it inside during the winter), but maybe I should simply enjoy them virtually on blogs like yours, and when I travel to the south. Our plants are confused up here in Wisconsin, too. I have many spring-flowering plants making big progress already, and some folks in town still have Roses blooming!

We haven't had much snow, but we did get some lows in the teens before this latest spate of warm weather, and some plants seem to think winter is over.Kathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11106962533729909868noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8765612855992884633.post-82514947331249342742015-12-16T17:20:58.107-05:002015-12-16T17:20:58.107-05:00Beautiful blooms!
