    That is a lovely plant @wazza63.  You should take a close up of one of the flowers and post it on the close up of flowers thread for more appreciative viewers!

    It is very pretty and healthy looking too and if you'd called your thread "Beautiful Camellia" you'd have had loads of views and comments but I suspect "Camilla" might be putting people off.........

    It hasn't put me off it is beautiful. Yes it is important to try and get plant names correct so that other gardeners know what you are referring to but it is far more important to enjoy a lovely photo.  A lady I worked for gave me a book with the Latin name of plants many years ago. She spoke Latin and it was only at that point that I realised the importance. Sadly my spelling still leaves much to be desired as most will know who read my posts. I don't mind I enjoy sharing my gardening thoughts whatever.

    I know @GardenerSuze but some spelling mistakes can really put people off and the unwitting association here is unfortunate.

    I agree @Obelixx I too thought this was a post about a certain woman.

    Help and advice has been given in the past regarding what seems to be the same plant.

    I think this is to show the progression of it's growth.

    @wazza63 Having looked back at your previous threads when you asked for an ID, your Camellia has made great progress. Thankyou for the update and photo. You obviously enjoy your garden.
     As I have mentioned spelling isn't my best point. Just continue to go for it, post photos of your successes and ask away with questions when things go wrong or you need to know an answer, are my thoughts.
    I am a retired gardener, always learning something new, asking questions gives you confidence to do more.[now I have repeated myself] never mind.
