*haha got camellia bugged lol*
haha
5:38 LOL!
I think, it’s more like Camellia addiction!! I’m having withdrawal watching your video!! Knowing the growth requirements of camellia, wish I can have some of those gorgeous camellias!! 🥴
I live in Ohio US . I was recently surprised to see a local botanical garden,showing blooming camelias . I will have to try them. How lovely to have outdoor blooms in cold weather
They don’t bloom well up there It’s Jan te are I. Bloom here
This music seemed frantic this morning ...stressful? Before 5 am... maybe I just need more coffee! ;)
😂 🤣
What a lovely display of camellias they've got. Thanks for sharing Rachel.
Thanks for watching.
Thank you for this amazing video. With information and names. Your channel is brilliant. ❤
You are so welcome!
Yeah the beat drops do be breathtaking
Wow, so many & gorgeous !! Thank you for taking us along.
Welcome 😊
Beautiful beautiful beautiful!!!! But please please please Rachel...change that hooooorrrrible background music ....please!!!!😉😉😁😁😁
Gardening at Douentza
😂 🤣
Verry nice flowers
Absolutely stunning and a wonderful feast for the eyes
Thanks so much for sharing
My pleasure 😊
Hi. lovely collecrion . Thanks for sharing
Thank you for watching.
Great video, really well done!!!!!❤
Thank you
If you ever come to the States be sure to visit St. Louis Botanical Gardens. They have a very nice Conservatory of Camellias.
Ooh, it sounds amazing 😍
please the music ? great vid otherwise
I'm from Germany and love your videos! Greetings from German
Ah thank you. It is really nice of you to take the time to tell me 🤗
This is so beautiful!
Glad you enjoyed it
Camellias are so nice, they should be coming into bloom here in Florida. Maybe I can ask my friend Will if I can record his camellias which some his grandfather planted back in the 1930's and 1940's.
I'd like to get a few sinensis to produce my own tea.
It would be great if you could make that video. I would love to see it. Camellia sinensis isn't very showy but it's fun to make the tea and it really tastes great, even in Ireland's lousy climate 🤗
i can sense it, a genuinely nice video will soon be taken over by viewers from a completely different channel
ikr
I have no idea what you mean
@@GardeningatDouentza a famous music artist who goes by camellia used like two seconds of this video and left it as a source in the description of his video
@@csquaredfilms Okay, thank you. Views are views I guess but I don't imagine many gardeners will come in this way 😂
I love love love Camellias. My soil is not acid and tried several times to grow them in pots but they do not do well either. I guess I do not give them enough moisture, they also dry too fast in our summer. But north of Portugal they grow wonderfully and we can see huge specimen in gardens planted in the ground.
That is unfortunate. I saw amazing camellia trees in Madeira but they were not in bloom so I was so pleased to catch this collection in flower. I am lucky because camellias do really well in my garden so I feel some purchases coming on 🤗
The family that trained me with orchids specialized in Camellas...Chico State University has many of them on campus along with their Roses. They traveled the world for plants....great video..
Thanks....
I guess I am speaking with an expert then 😁
Thanks for watching.
@@GardeningatDouentza I know more about orchids than Camellas or roses...as a kid I worked at Harry&David's Bear Creek Orchards in the Jackson Perkins rose area. 😂
Wow!!! Unfortunately I have chalky soil. Love camellias. So beautiful.
That is a shame. You can grow them in pots but it is always so much easier to put a plant in the ground!
I want a greenhouse like that! Here in the Carolinas camellias are a welcome part of the winter landscape with their blooms. I've seen three different varieties growing on the same bush. They must take well to grafting!
Sounds divine 😀
It was.🌸Have a great day!
Beautiful, I can imagine you wandering through there for quite a while enjoying the blooms and taking notes. Along the coast here in south Florida they don't seem to thrive. I planted one a few years ago and it just got weaker and weaker until I pulled it out.
That is a shame, Michael, but I guess we need to take the lead from our gardens. There is no point in growing something that is always struggling. Besides, you grow a heap of amazing stuff in Florida 😁
Did you try growing them in shade? South GA here, we use pine trees over the top of ours
@@JoshuaKevinPerry It was under an oak tree and a "heat tolerant" variety. I know it gets hot in GA, but you guys typically cool down at night. Here, from June through August, it really doesn't unless storms come through late. (last summer was horrible, it was quite dry and most days started at 85)
Absolutely gorgeous camellias
Thank you 😁
Estan bellisimas estas camelias, pero las tienen protegidas en invernaderos ya que Alemania es muy frío. Una hermosa colecciones de camelias. Saludos desde México City. En México City crecen estupendas al aire libre, tengo una colección personal de aproximadamente 50 y estan fantasticas, gracias al buen clima en esta ciudad, así como suelos ácidos y bien drenados de tipo volcánico. El video esta SUPER. Felicidades.
Gracias
Gorgeous flowers, my middle name is actually Camelia :)
😄
Thank you so much for education.
welcome
Gorgeous flowers💐💐❤️ what is the cause of camellia’s flowers go brown? - where to plant camellia sun or shade?
Camellia flowers will go brown with a late frost. They will also go brown if they get early morning sun because they often have dew on their petals at that time and the sun burns them. Camellias like a sheltered position in dappled shade where they are not exposed to morning sun. Hope this helps.
@@GardeningatDouentza thank you for great advice💐💐❤️
Beautiful Rachel. I want one ,
Me too 🤗
Buenos dias señora linda que preciosas camelias saludos asta pronto
Gracias 🤗
beauty
Hello i'm from indonesia andd i like your video 😍😍
Hello from Ireland to Indonesia 😊
@@GardeningatDouentza Do you sell camellia seeds?
@@atsil287 Sorry, no
Really wonderful plants that can be a floriferous precursor to azaleas and Rhododendrons. As you noted they must be sighted correctly and given a moist, rich acid soil. It’s very sad when you see the lovely petals turning brown and mushy prematurely due to incorrect culture, though some years it can be inclement weather that mars their beauty. Personally, I think they make a nice deep green, waxy leaved foliage plant, when not in bloom.
I do love them 😁
@ 10:45, bees are going after flowers that have dropped into a pool?
Massey Gardens in Marshallville Georgia, USA has a Feb showcase..bushes 20 feet tall bloom. It's absurd how little press they get.
Sounds amazing.
No species? I noticed I only have 4 species out of a total of 8 orchids. What am I going to do with my life now? T_T Apart from that, lovely Camellia display. I would really like to get one fragrant Camellia one day. :)
What a wasted life 😂 🤣
You are obviously the person who likes the unusual - the yellow hellebore, the pink delphinium! While scent is lovely I often feel that we should seek out what a plant offers naturally rather than expected it to mimic something else. Just my opinion 😁
@@GardeningatDouentza And I gave away a Hoya macgillivrayii cause it smelled like magnolia plastic and crayons. It's stronger than me, but you are right, that's why I keep my 6 Hippeastrum. No scent whatsoever, but what a beauty, it's undeniable. ^_^
Which camellias are good for California
In Mississippi mine are in bloom now in January
wow
I hate the background music.
But great information thank you
Someone always hates the music 😂
2 questions
Will they grow in shade?
Can they be grown in neutral clay soil?
I think both of these questions are answered in the video. They need shade and acid soil. You may find some varieties that tolerate neutral soil if you research it.
Which 1 is the fastest growing thanks
Camellias aren't fast growing plants. Can't say which is the fastest
Son todas tan hermosa soy fan de esas tengo algunas pero me encantaría tener algunas variedades que tiene y que no las ay a qui venden al público y pueden mandarlas gracias
Sorry, I don't sell plants
Stick bug camellia
Btw, if you want a baobab (Adansonia digitata) in your life, I will be selling some for 5 euros each pot in a few months (every pot will have two plants, they have germinated already, but I have to pot them yet), when they get bigger. I will be selling seeds too, cause I have lots of them now, and I am not going to plant like 150 baobabs.
Congratulations on your success. I'm not sure a baobab would tolerate a five degree winter though 😃
@@GardeningatDouentza You would have to keep it in your house during the cold season.
The music takes away from it all!!
Does it smell Mam...?
You like your scents! Mostly camellia have no scent but some species like sasanqua do.
Got it....thanks again for the info..ya bits like the flower scent..
Good video but music was annoying 😬

You living in American?
No, I'm not.
