After three days of picking, Sue Tapping has put together a sumptuous display of camellia blooms at Wildwood Garden.
Come and enjoy the displays of cut flowers and then wander in the garden to see the plants in flower. There are also lots of potted shrubs for sale. With more than 600 varieties, there's a lot to enjoy.
As well, for the first time, Sue is displaying three new varieties raised in the garden. All are Hybrid Reticulatas. 'Wildwood Nikki' (photo 2) is fast-growing with a luminous deep pink and white veined flower. 'Wildwood Cayley' (photo 3) has masses of large, deep pink flowers and is quick growing. With an even darker deep pink flower, 'Wildwood Carissa' is also beautiful (photo 1, top). All three new varieties are on show at the Camellia Show (August 16-19 and August 23-26) at Wildwood and shown below.
The three new varieties are not yet available to buy but there are many other beautiful camellias for sale in the Wildwood Nursery.
