Thanks Neal. That was nature's doing. I just happened to catch it.
Linnea - I love the camelias too. I am itching to go into the neighbors yard to give them the good pruning they really need (after bloomtime). I already prune back the rhododendrons, so I don't think he would mind. The three camelia bushes are always loaded with blooms, but almost always bloom too early and get some frost damage.
