FOTD – Japanese camellia

Happy Friday everyone! Today’s flower of the day is the Japanese camellia, which surprised me as I thought it was a rose. However, it is also known as Rose of Winter. Very fitting considering it is indeed still winter here in Sydney.

As you can see from the droplets of rain on the flower, our weather hasn’t improved much. They’re even saying now we could have a wet spring. Fingers crossed the bureau of meteorology are wrong. Anyway, I hope you all have a lovely weekend, whether you’re out and about or relaxing at home.
