Camellia

Popped down to see mum this morning (working at home as Geoff had to have a minor op on his knee (hospital at 0745 and picked him up at 0945)) to drop of some bread and milk (thank heavens for Meals on Wheels). Secretly I have been arranging for some of her blackberry bushes (AKA brambles) to be "pruned". Thus exposing 2 beautiful camelia bushes which are just coming into flower. luckily she hasn't twigged (so far) that she can only see these because the brambles are no longer there. I love the glossy leaves too.
