Wow, I almost missed it this week. I've not done much blogging over the last few days, not really sure why, I guess I'm having a Blah to blogging week.

This image is of a Camelia I have blooming away in my polytunnel.
I took the picture over the last couple of days - I must remember to get some of the entire shrub as it is absolutely smothered in blooms - for the first time I might add.
Such a shame it has to sit away in the polytunnel  where I'm the only one that gets to see it but Sadly it won't survive the salt laden sea winds we get here and I lost the last one  so I ain't risking this one.



I'm quite suprised by how many colours I managed to pick out of this Camelia. I figured there'd be one or two tones of Cream only - who knew!
One day  I'll have to learn how to make all those little colour boxes the same size, at the moment I'm having to create each individual colour box with the rectangle tool and then grab the colour with the eyedropper tool and fill it in with the paintbucket tool - soooooooo tedious!

I'm linking this one over at Rosies 'Leavesnbloom studio' as always and would like to thank her for hosting and hope she has a speedy recovery soon.

Thanks Linda - hopefully by next weekend I'll be back to gardening again. Cream camelias are very tender and hard to grow outdoors even down here with me. I can just imagine the blooms on that bush as I love camelias and mine has just recovered from a near death experience after the past two winters and is just interested in making some new leaves. Lovely colours in the palette aswell.

What stunning flowers - and the colour palette is beautiful too - I'd never have guessed it had so many colours in it. Really lovely!
