When you said "it came a flood," talking about your pansies I thought of my mother and grandmother saying, "it's coming up a cloud." I love my family's Southern expressions!
I have a camellia problem too as I keep buying different colors for my home. I have several white, yellow, four different shades of pink, a bicolor of pink and white and then red. I just have always loved them.
@@JimPutnam yes, I over fertilized and have gotten a great year. They’ll bloom through April. My neighbor’s professor Sargent started blooming in October and will bloom through April. That plant was on steroids this year.
@@JimPutnam Do Japonicas typically bloom in very late winter / early spring? My new japonicas (ave maria) held on to their buds through the snow, but they still haven't quite cracked open
I bought a GORGEOUS Nuccio’s Cameo Japonica at Camellia Forest this past weekend. Planted it in my perfect sun dappled spot in downtown Hillsborough. Blooms were there 2 days before the deer helped themselves. Fencing in place, spray applied. Argggghh.
Yes. You do have a problem. Thank goodness. You help encourage us with great info and lots of fun. Keep it up. Enjoying gardening is a great problem to have. I purchased 6 camillias this year. I can't wait to see them mature. Thanks for your channel.
Is there such thing as too many? You’ve “encouraged” me to buy a few this year...lol. I have 9 so far this year....went looking today for another one. I enjoy your channel so much...thank you for sharing.
I wouldn’t consider it a bad problem to have! I only have 3 camellias but I suffer from a terrible rhododendron problem! We all have our crosses to bear.
Definitely not a problem!!!! I have 7, all that bloom at different times. There's just too much to love about camellias. They come in every flower size and color, foliage color and size, growth habit and more. What is there not to love!
Aww. I know how you feel. We especially miss what we grew up with. Down south I really miss lilacs and truly perennial tulips. Thanks to Jim I've bought my first 'Southern' plants instead..
well considering I have 14 camellias currently on a similar sized lot, 2 more that are being planted soon, and *checks notes* 42 on my list to buy eventually...I would say you don't yet have any sort of issue.
I planted three April Dawn camellias late last summer from Camellia Forrest. They’re supposed to be one of the cold hardier ones. Cannot wait to see them bloom. They’re supposed to have any variegation of white and pink or solid white or pink all on the same plant.
Variety is the best. Save some space for newer versions of Camellias for the future. I am more of a Satsuki Azalea fan, but I still have space in my garden to add 1-3 new or rare Japanese azaleas. Your instructional and insightful videos are the best.
My pansies are really disappointing this year too. I bought cheap ones last fall, I thought maybe that was the problem, but maybe it is because of all the rain? My winter kale and viola look great, but those are in containers. Maybe the extra drainage has helped? My pansies have never been this sad in March. I had not thought about blaming the endless rain, Hmmm. My crocuses are better than ever, and daffodils and tulips are poking their heads up, so their are still things to look forward to.
I recently purchased Professor Sargent Camellia Japonica. I am in NJ Zone 7a. Since we were heavily snowed I did not plant it and left it on my deck. The direct sunlight scorched their leaves and they turned brown and fell off. I knew that Japonicas don't like direct sunlight but did not know that even direct sunlight in Winter can damage them. We had a couple of Sunny days when there was snow on the ground. I guess the sunlight compounded with snow glare was too much for the Camellia to handle. The temperature was in the 20s for a couple of days, which I think they can handle. Long story short, now I have a defoliated Professor Sargent. Not sure, whether I should plant it at all.
I would wait to plant it until it starts regrowing. No reason to give it another stress right now. If it was in the garage or out of any direct light for a while that could have also contributed to the burn.
@@JimPutnam Yes, you made the correct diagnosis. I had put the camellia in the garage for a bit of time when the temperature fell to the teens for a couple of weeks. I will let it leaf out before I plant it. Thanks for your advice!
Holly is so cute she stays so close to you, she makes me want to go get a dog. Your front garden looks so beautiful, I hope we get to see it when as plants begin to bloom. Now for camellias, if you really love them, plant as many as you can, enjoy every moment of nurturing them. You'll then reap the reward of their gorgeous flowers.
Hi Jim Camilla are flowering evergreens… more the merrier. I have only two in my yard. Only a year old & they look amazing. They are Spring blooming Japonicas.
i planted 5 camellia late last summer here in Oklahoma. That arctic blast we had really burned a couple. Hopefully they recover. Alabama Beauty really took a hit.
I've lived in the south since 1996 and am just now beginning to plant camellias. The downside is the slow growth, but the flowers and timing can't be beat. Concerning planting more, I say go for it!
Not a bad problem to have. I always plant in drifts of one so I can enjoy more variety in my small garden. When there are so many varieties of a great genus it is difficult not to collect a few. I consider myself more a plant collector then gardener. Maybe I have a problem.
Hi Jim never too many I'm just starting out with 2 in my yard . Can't wait to get more ! I'm Not too far from you down here in Rock Hill SC . Love all your videos.
You can never have too many camellias. :) My grandmother has many varieties that she planted over the last 40 years. That is one reason we have several varieties at our place!
If it's what you love go for it! I started my landscape journey last year. My passion is Japanese maples, I started with 2 in June and am up to 15 now! Many more to come I'm sure. I have a few Camillas and want to add at least 2 more. We'll see where my journey takes me
I have a camellia problem too but mine suffered in the freezing weather here in OK. They dont look good hoping they bounce back. I have about 12 planted as a screen. Only about 1 to 2 yrs old. The only 2 that still look good are the Christmas Carol versions.
I probably have too many- but a really pretty driveway. I grow certain variegated leaf camellias in pots so if it’s too cold they go in the garage. Since there are a lot of camellia lovers here, what about an episode about camellia societies?
I live in zone 7a and I am very disappointed in the Yuletide Camellia. I bought one two different times and put them in a protected site with Sunshine only until one, and away from winter winds, and the leaves turned brown and died.
HI, ALL MY CAMILLA LEAVES ARE FALLING! CAN YOU HELP??? all the leafs are starting to get black from the axile and then the go upward to the leafs petiole and mid rib, but they all fall pretty quickly after getting black from the axile and Im very very concerned!! i have looked everywhere online and i cant find an explanation to this anywhere!! meanwhile all the leaves are falling😭. the only insects or pests ( I don't know what it is ) are like very very tiny kinda greish or white bugs that are all over the soil and I see them climbing the tree trunk at the bottom. they are at the size of a dot looking kinda like aphid but much smaller and they are all over the soil I don't know if they are the responsible for all my leaves falling or what is ?? can you please help??🙏🙏🙏
I love camellias. I'm located in 7B, but I've never seen them sold in the nurseries here. I don't think you could have too many as long as they love where they are being planted.
Those Camellias are going to look beautiful. I think some Autumn Twist azaleas would look great along the front foundation when you complete the porch remodel.
Hey Jim!!! I'm 30 min outside of Raleigh and having a problem with my Camilla. I bought it about 4m ago and the leaves are falling off. It's in a pretty shady place and get a couple hours of sun through bunches of trees.
Have a look at the C. Sasanqua 'Yume' too. It was recommended by the Royal Horticultural Society when I visited Wisley a couple of years ago. Stunning in my garden here in UK though I do have to work to acidity my 6.5 ph soil. By the way, have you espaliered any of your Sasanquas? I'm going to have a go with one in a large pot next February once it has flowered.
Hey there...could you tell me how I could train one of the Camellia sasanqua 'Shishi Gashira' up my brick wall of my chimney? Do I need a trellis in front of it or can I somehow attach the branches to the bricks in an espaliered fashion? Thanks!
Hello Jim, Camellias are awesome plants. I bought a Debutante camellia from an online store. It flowered for the first time since planting it three years ago but the flowers are not what is in the picture. Is it possible that the plant needs to “mature” first to get the bloom or first flowers should have what the cultivar flowers should look like? Thank you.
I love your white shishi! I tried hard and failed to procure one for myself locally here in Columbia, South Carolina. What about some encore azaleas or gardenias for balance?
You can never have too many camellias, Jim. You should get a Camellia sinensis--the white flowers are smaller and less showy than sasanquas and japonicas, but it has lovely seed pods at this time of year and it blooms in late summer--so a different seasonality to it. I grow them in 7A, so they will do well for you there.
I don't think it is too many. I wish I had the acidic soil you do as I would have many as well. I'm an Acer addict and have 22 trees total 17 different varieties so I get it.
Also, I say, if you love camellias, not enough! I have my "jewel garden" named after I read Monty Don's book (one of many I've read of his) that shows off his "jewel-toned" garden, and I have a jewel-toned garden now under my family-room window where I can always keep a curious, watchful eye, and where also I plant my special little "jewels" or favorite plants. So I think in your jewel garden you need a couple more camellias! :)
Not enough yet!!! More camellias!!!! LOL can you please talk more about best cameillas for zone 6? I want to give it a try. Would I have better luck with japonica or the other variety?
No... you dont have a problem your just planting for me too, since I cant really grow them here in zone 5/6. I probably could try on my southside of the house bc I have huge Four O clocks that comeback everyear over there somehow, but there's very limited space for a shrub. Edit: plus I've never seen anywhere around here sell them
Why do my Camellia bud drop on the ground without blooming? I tried to water it more after I read it needs water. HELP!! BTW, I love all the information you’ve been providing and helped me a lot in my gardening. Zone 9a, Panama City, Florida
I planted my camellias last fall and they have gone through that horrible artic weather and they aren't looking so good now. I'm not sure they will make it, I'm zone 7b. My Mahonias leaves are all brown except for the very bottom of the plant. Not sure if I should cut back to the green or not.
Love them, I get you....I have one though that has only produced one flower in five years, I've tried everything .....I do love the yellow one Jim ☺️ another great, interesting vlog
Hi Jim . I have k my one camelia and it was doing beautiful . I was so proud . Suddenly from one day to another , I noticed some of the leaves were turning brown on tips and edges and falling off . I’ve noticed it’s still happening to more leaves . Am I going to lose it ? I wonder what I did wrong ? 😞
Ten camellias - sounds good to me! I have one that was badly pruned two years ago, and I'm hoping it will bloom this year. Last year, I planted three more - two red "curly" camellias and a pink one named, "Our Linda". I plant roses and peonies to excess, and the deer eat the blossoms on my pink roses to excess. I have a question for you, Jim. I found out that what was sent to me as bluebells are yellow crocuses. I did, however, just find a box of what are supposed to be bluebell bulbs that shipped late and haven't been planted. Assuming the bulbs still seem viable, is it too late to plant them?
Can't never have too many Camellias! LOVE them.
When you said "it came a flood," talking about your pansies I thought of my mother and grandmother saying, "it's coming up a cloud." I love my family's Southern expressions!
My grandmother used to say that, too!❤
Support group meets every Wednesday at noon! 😂
That's funny 🤣
@Tofog22000 - Best comment!
😁😊😋🍀🌿🌱
Meets every Wednesday. At the nursery. In front of the camelia section.😁
Just discovered Camellias! I have 3 now. They are slow growers, so you have to be patient. You don't have a problem, you have great taste! ❤️
Plant more because you 💕them!! 😊
After watching this, my sister-in-law said "He has 10 and I only have 3. Should I tell him he has a problem, or should I order more?" 🤣🤣🤣
Order more!!! I've only got 4 myself... better go to the nursery today!
I have a camellia problem too as I keep buying different colors for my home. I have several white, yellow, four different shades of pink, a bicolor of pink and white and then red. I just have always loved them.
I share this problem, Jim! I have over 10 types of Camellia Japonica.
At the old house I had an acre to plant. This place not so much. Yours must be busting open right now.
@@JimPutnam yes, I over fertilized and have gotten a great year. They’ll bloom through April. My neighbor’s professor Sargent started blooming in October and will bloom through April. That plant was on steroids this year.

My problem is that I’m a new gardener, fell in love with camellias, planted 12 and threw away the tags and have no idea what they are.
they're so beautiful. hoping someone figures out how to breed Encore Camellias in my lifetime lol
When most of the country is buried in snow, camellias are blooming in Florida.
I can see why you love them! They are gorgeous.
Picking up our first three camellias from the Oakland Cemetery sale this weekend! Great video and perfect timing.
Me too!!! So excited to add to my collection❤
That's awesome
I’m developing a camellia problem, thanks to you.
Me, too. Best problem I ever had.
I say whatever works and you love GO FOR IT!!

If you love something (that's not harmful) and it makes you happy- you can never have enough. lol. Plant on brother. 💖
Is there such thing as too many? You’ve “encouraged” me to buy a few this year...lol. I have 9 so far this year....went looking today for another one. I enjoy your channel so much...thank you for sharing.
Apparently, I don’t have enough! I’m inspired to plant more. Thanks
I only have 1 Camelia...zone 6b. I have it indoors because when I received it from my supplier, it was in winter so I couldn't sow it into the ground.
I wouldn’t consider it a bad problem to have! I only have 3 camellias but I suffer from a terrible rhododendron problem! We all have our crosses to bear.
You cannot have too many plants, the only problem is not having enough space to keep them all!
No problem! Looks great!
I have Crimson and Clover and October Magic orchid and ten Yuletide. Your problem may be contagious. 😃
Definitely not a problem!!!! I have 7, all that bloom at different times. There's just too much to love about camellias. They come in every flower size and color, foliage color and size, growth habit and more. What is there not to love!
We moved from SoCal to Indiana and I so miss my camellias and jasmine 😢. More camellias!!!!
Aww. I know how you feel. We especially miss what we grew up with. Down south I really miss lilacs and truly perennial tulips. Thanks to Jim I've bought my first 'Southern' plants instead..
Beautiful. Not enough! I think you need more. Gorgeous!
well considering I have 14 camellias currently on a similar sized lot, 2 more that are being planted soon, and *checks notes* 42 on my list to buy eventually...I would say you don't yet have any sort of issue.

You can never have too many camellias. :) My grandmother has many varieties that she planted over the last 40 years. That is one reason we have several varieties at our place!

Oh wow. That probably looks great!
I probably have too many- but a really pretty driveway. I grow certain variegated leaf camellias in pots so if it’s too cold they go in the garage.

I agree too! Can't have too many... Beautiful!
Always room for more!!
That camellia is beautiful. I have camellia envy. I can't grow them here. I do however have a plant problem so I can relate.
this year only I have bought 30 camellias lol they are so beautiful, no fuss plant and low maintenance .
and Im still not done yet.
I have five ,just love them💐🌺🥀🌹🌷
They are hard to beat!!
I love camellias. I'm located in 7B, but I've never seen them sold in the nurseries here. I don't think you could have too many as long as they love where they are being planted.
Oh just go for an even dozen. 🤣 I want one but I don’t think they would get enough sunlight with all the Pecan trees in my yard. Love them though!
My grandfather loved camellias. He had over 100 of them. They grew well for him in Portsmouth, VA.
Those Camellias are going to look beautiful. I think some Autumn Twist azaleas would look great along the front foundation when you complete the porch remodel.
Hey Jim!!! I'm 30 min outside of Raleigh and having a problem with my Camilla. I bought it about 4m ago and the leaves are falling off. It's in a pretty shady place and get a couple hours of sun through bunches of trees.

up my brick wall of my chimney? Do I need a trellis in front of it or can I somehow attach the branches to the bricks in an espaliered fashion? Thanks!
Camellia question - can you recommend a variety that is upright and narrow? I'm in Zone 9B. Thanks!
My opinion is you could never have too much of something you love go for it Jim!
There's no such thing as too many camellias! This new addition is beautiful (well, all camellias are beautiful)!
Never enough!!!! Thank you for the video🤗
Low growing flowers to add varying heights and textures amongst the shrubs?
Hello Jim, Camellias are awesome plants. I bought a Debutante camellia from an online store. It flowered for the first time since planting it three years ago but the flowers are not what is in the picture. Is it possible that the plant needs to “mature” first to get the bloom or first flowers should have what the cultivar flowers should look like? Thank you.
I just purchased a lemon glow camellia! I love camellias and I’m up to 15! 💚 Never too many
I love your white shishi! I tried hard and failed to procure one for myself locally here in Columbia, South Carolina. What about some encore azaleas or gardenias for balance?
You can never have too many camellias, Jim. You should get a Camellia sinensis--the white flowers are smaller and less showy than sasanquas and japonicas, but it has lovely seed pods at this time of year and it blooms in late summer--so a different seasonality to it. I grow them in 7A, so they will do well for you there.
wow that’s a beautiful camellia! beautiful plant! i think if you have the space for it, the more the merrier ! 😍
Finally you got the one camellia type that I actually have. I love yellow glow!!!
In any case, I love your videos they are fun to watch and informative as well.
They are beautiful!! Is never enough
I’m not been lucky enough for them to survive
You’re good, keep’em comin’
Can’t grow them in my zone so just say you’re taking care of mine for me and plant away.
Thanks for a great video. Sadly, I only have four camellias and three are exactly the same variety. You have inspired me to purchase more!
I don't think it is too many. I wish I had the acidic soil you do as I would have many as well. I'm an Acer addict and have 22 trees total 17 different varieties so I get it.
Oh wow. I'm sure they look great in the spring and fall
Also, I say, if you love camellias, not enough! I have my "jewel garden" named after I read Monty Don's book (one of many I've read of his) that shows off his "jewel-toned" garden, and I have a jewel-toned garden now under my family-room window where I can always keep a curious, watchful eye, and where also I plant my special little "jewels" or favorite plants.

Zone 9a, Panama City, Florida
They are all beautiful. Get more. Lol.
Ummm....can one ever have too many....I think not !!!! Moved to a new property back in September. First thing I did was buy camellias!!!!
You will be inundated by the illicium Florida sunshine...mine got huge and I took it way back....
I planted my camellias last fall and they have gone through that horrible artic weather and they aren't looking so good now. I'm not sure they will make it, I'm zone 7b. My Mahonias leaves are all brown except for the very bottom of the plant. Not sure if I should cut back to the green or not.
