That's beautiful, the white ones sometimes get touched by the frost in the UK and go brown.

I have a dark pink camellia, but the pale ones are lovely

How pretty, it seems to be almost a double. I have quite a lot including a white one. Despite my planting it in the most sheltered spot if it gets touched by the frost, as Knitter says the flowers turn brown. If it is badly hit it looks as if someone has hung used teabags from the shrub, not a pretty sight 😂😂!

Glad you enjoyed...my white ones on top get bruised by rain and wind but planted them about 40 years ago so white ones underneath pretty protected.That white one I planted when I was 11yo so is almost 50yo and about 30 feet

This is a stunner. the one I have, very small yet, is the usual common pinky red one, but lovely nevertheless.
