Joseph's Take
I do very much like Winter's Fancy and Winter Interlude. This Camellia grows a bit faster than its near relative Winter Interlude. I like both very much. Once I planted a Camellia seed from my grandmothers house, I was amazed that it actually grew and eventually became part of my parents landscape.

Be sure to use a well drained soil medium when planting any Camellia as they prefer fall planting with less watering than you might think. In NC our soil is clay so we prefer to use pine bark soil conditioner when planting Camellia, Rhododendron, Mountain Laurel, and Azalea.
