We call "Stewartia pseudocamellia" "Summer Camellia, natu-tubaki. 夏椿" in Japanese. Header is made from this illustration page and with last year's picture.
As I wrote last year in this page, I was so facilitated to know we can find this flower 'sou-rin-ji temple; 宗隣寺'' (←link to my post of the temple) located in my city. Went there on 2nd this month; like last year， I missed the full blooming period (^^;)
*Here are the pictures of the temple with some fences*
I tried to post the different pictures from last year. Entrance of the temple and the stone stairs to the entrance.
Linking this post to "Good Fences", "Floral Friday Fotos",
and "TODAY'S FLOWERS",
Since this Monday, lots of things required my attention. Haven't been able to visit any friends... One of the them was new cell-phone. Made lots of calls to use it efficiently p:-)
Just a little weariness, Hope you all are doing fine♡♡♡ See You Soon!!!
Hello Miyako, the Camelia blooms are beautiful. I love the images. Pretty shots of the temple's entrance. The trees and greenery are lovely. Have a happy day!
ReplyDeleteLovely!
ReplyDeleteThe Summer Camellia blooms look a lot like my Tea plant blooms, Camellia sinensis, which are very small but also white. The temple has lovely walls and fences, and the last photo with the little garden makes me think of an island, surrounded by sand, and the little tree and shrubs, and pillar are so well-designed.
ReplyDeleteMiyako, these are such beautiful and delicate flowers, and so appropriate for the temple. Have a wonderful day, my friend. Hugs from Texas.
ReplyDeletehope you got the cell phone straightened out. :) lovely temple entrance. the blooms remind me of fried eggs with yolk and egg-whites. :)
ReplyDeleteLike TEX, I was thinking the flowers look like eggs. :)

Such a beautiful garden; we have visited three or four Japanese Gardens here in the States and they are so wonderfully done, peaceful and calming. And I am sure the ones in Japan are even more lovely.
ReplyDeleteThat is a beautiful camellia.
I know what you mean about being tired after getting a new phone. I am frustrated and tired whenever we get any new technical 'gadget'. There is always so much to learn (and always the feeling that there is more to learn that I am not using.)
Que lugar lindo!
ReplyDeleteThese look quite different from our camelia blooms, which are packed with many petals like a rose. Very pretty!
