Camellia Collection

Our camellia's have grown into quite substantial bushes, some were dug out of Rod's parents garden before they sold, one was from my Grandfathers garden and one was a gift from a work colleague. 9 varieties in total, 8 of which are planted in the Camellia garden.

One mans rubbish is another mans treasure

A trip to my parents at Victor Harbor with the trailer to help them get rid of accumulated stuff resulted in lots of old tools to display in the shelf unit in my new potting area. Some of the tools probably belonged to my Grandfather - Sid.
