Camellias and Anemones
The rains are hard on camellias, especially the pale pinks. One day they are pink and perfect, the next day they are browned and on the ground. I picked these blooms right on time. Wish I had 100 bushes so that I could share these pretty little flowers with you.
"The first of April, some do
say,
Is set apart for All Fools' Day.
But why the people call it so,
Nor I, nor they themselves do know.
But on this day are people sent
On purpose for pure merriment."
- Poor Robin's Almanac, 1790
