Beautiful Camellias in Americus Georgia

It is definitely camellia time in Americus, Georgia.

Just a short stroll from the Americus Garden Inn Bed and Breakfast is a treasure trove of beautiful camellias.

I took a photo of every blooming bush.

However, there were many plants still in the bud stage.

So, in a week or two, there will be a whole bunch more to enjoy.

Please allow yourself to simply enjoy a virtual stroll through the flowers.

All of these photos are unedited.  

It was warm enough for the bees and wasps to be active.

Hope you enjoyed this virtual camellia tour of Oak Grove Cemetery.  Which one was your favorite?  I promise to share more the next time I take a stroll.

Thanks for visiting the Americus Garden Inn blog.  We hope to see you in person, soon!

Love,

Susan

A Beautiful New Year in Americus Georgia

Happy New Year!  I can't believe how quickly time has flown.

As you can see, the camellias are in bloom.

No, these are not in my garden.

However, just a few minute stroll from our door,

you can see all these beauties at Oak Grove Cemetery.

If I had the time, I would drive to Massee Lane Gardens in Fort Valley,

home of the American Camellia Society.

Since I don't have the time,

I allowed myself a half hour break

to enjoy these exquisite flowers

all blooming right now.

There are many varieties that are loaded with buds.

Our sasanquas are just about done,

but our camellias are not quite ready.

So, if you have a little time and you love camellias,

make sure to visit Oak Grove Cemetery.  It is one of my favorite places to walk in Americus.

I hope you enjoyed the virtual camellia bouquet.  If you come visit us in the next couple of months, I promise, there will still be lots of camellias.  Plan enough time to visit Massee Lane Gardens, too.  It is well worth the visit.

Thanks for stopping by the Americus Garden Inn Blog.  We hope 2020 brings you much joy!

Love,

Susan and Kim

Day Tripping in Americus - Oak Grove Cemetery Camellias

I took a quick stroll over to Oak Grove Cemetery, just 1/4 mile from our door, to see which camellias are in bloom.  It would appear that they all are!  So please just click on the first photo and enjoy the tour of all the beauty right here in Americus.

I hope you enjoyed all these beautiful camellias.  Come visit us and see them for yourself.  And, of course, plan a visit to Massee Lane Gardens, home of the American Camellia Society, about a half hour drive from here.

We'd love to host your stay here in Americus at the Americus Garden Inn Bed and Breakfast.  Hope to see you soon.

Love,

Susan
