Wendy introduced the evening by saying that sadly many people thought that camellias were difficult to care for and expensive to buy; she then dismissed both of these misconceptions by giving us easy-to-follow ideas for the planting and care and told us that many camellias could last for 60 years or more which gave a new calculation on the price of annuals.
