I appreciate camellias for their indestructible and garish winter color

冬がきらいですが、ツバキが大好きです。最低限の世話でも雪でも、鮮やかな花が長いあいだ咲きます。

Camellias can be seen everywhere during Tokyo’s winter.

I am not a fan of winter, so I particularly appreciate camellia’s for proving indestructible color in bright pink on the coldest days. Whether pruned into a hedge, or placed in a plastic container, camellias are resilient to snow and require minimal care. The neighbor’s camellia has turned into a 5 meter tall tree.
