Each Monday Cathy at Rambling In The Garden encourages us to share a vase highlighting what is growing in our gardens.
Happy to find a few camellias to share, I’m off to prepare for a luncheon I’m hosting for long-time yoga friends. These women have been a strong source of inspiration and laughter for many years, and this year especially, a well of support.

Thanks to Cathy at Rambling In The Garden for hosting and giving us an opportunity to share flower designs across the world. Visit her to discover what she and others found to place In A Vase On Monday.
My sister has several Yuletide. They always bloom on cue. Lovely!
Thank you Flower, Yuletide seems to be a popular camellia and fo good reason.
‘Yuletide’ makes a beautiful display and fits the season well. Enjoy your luncheon, Susie!
Thanks Kris! We had a fun time at the luncheon.
Lovely arrangement on this cold Monday morning when I’m surrounded by brown and white outside.
Thanks Judy. A few spots of color from the garden do brighten the day.
You do this sort of arrangement so well, Susie, and ‘Yuletide’ is such an appropriate bloom for the season – definitely win-win! Hope you and your friends enjoyed the lunch as well as the ongoing support
Thank so much Cathy. The luncheon was lots of fun. Their support has meant the world this year.
So pleased to hear that you have felt supported. I hope 2020 will not prove to be such a difficullt year
The contrast between red and gold is very pretty and bright and cheerful.
Thanks Alison. Red and green have kept us going this month.
Simply wonderful and the scale is perfect. I hope you enjoy your Yuletide luncheon!
Thanks so much. I credit the vase for making arrangements quick and easy.
A truly poised arrangement of perfect blooms…
So kind! Thank you Noelle.
Ah, Camellia season! I’m so jealous. But thank you for sharing–they are beautiful and blooming just in time for the holidays! 🙂
Beth, I’m jealous too of camellias I see around town. Would love to have more varieties but haven’t been able to get others established. I think I had beginner’s luck with this one.
Gorgeous camellia
Thanks, this camellia has pulled double duty this season. Not much else blooming.
It is a real classic and so early. I think I shall have to search one out
Seeing those Camelias at this time of year makes me so jealous.
Jason, the camellias are the only thing going this time of year. Glad to have something blooming.
Of all the Camellia sasanqua we grew, this was one of our top five best sellers. It might have been the third most popular.
