Camellia, the camellias, is a genus of flowering plants in the family Theaceae. They are native to eastern and southern Asia, from the Himalaya east to Korea and Indonesia.
It grows in Auckland, and blooms in late autumn. There are white, pink and red ones. They don't seem to bloom every year, as the plant in my garden failed to produce a single bloom.
This was taken when there was heavy rain, and the groun was covered by camellia confetti.

Ann: Neat post even with all the shed petals.
Those camellias are so pretty, even all over the ground. :)
Hi Ann, I love the camellia blooms. Your pictures really do make the petals look like confetti!
