Mine-no-yuki

This sasanqua Camellia originated in Japan in 1891
Came to the USA in 1895 according to the American Camellia Society.
I propagated it from my old garden.
It is known as a loose peony form I call it the Thanksgiving Camellia
as it always seems to be in full bloom at that time


Mine-no-yuki translated as 'Snow on the Ridge'
In the woods a much looser form with less flowers









 Maybe because we had regular moisture all through the summer the Camellias seem more floriferous this year.
