One of my favourite views at this time of year can be seen from my back door. A glance across next door's garden to the one beyond and the beginnings of what will become a blaze of red is just starting to show:
If I remember correctly this is a Peony bush, tall enough for me to admire over the six foot fencing.
My thanks to Rob for identifying the flower as a Camellia.
My parents have a monster one next door!
ReplyDeleteSimon: This one must me at least 10 feet tall and growing.
DeleteIt looks very much like a camellia to me John. It looks very nice whatever it is.
ReplyDeleteRob: Thanks for the identification. I was told a few years ago what it is but the memory cells are getting more than a bit hazy at times.
DeleteYou're welcome.
DeleteMy neighbour has a red camellia just over the garden fence and we have a white one. Both are flowering really well this year and look lovely :)
