Camellia in the Spotlight

My local council encourages residents to plant shrubs and gardens on the street. They like people to submit a request but providing the shrubs don't pose a safety hazard all requests are approved. If you suffer from the dreaded full covering of concrete they will even assist with its removal.

This Camellia bloom was the result of someone planting on the street in front of their home. The sun was striking this flower as I walked by; it was stunning!
