On Sunday, November 23, 2025 we adorned Ruby the Camellia with 400+ mini Christmas lights. (We won't light her up until after Thanksgiving). I'll let her do another selfie when we turn on her lights.
While adorning her we noticed she has a zillion buds on her
her time to bloom/shine is between November and February. Sometimes she blooms twice
This is her very first bloom of the season.
