My plant app says this is a Portland Rose but it isn't, it's a Camellia. I've had quite a few flowers on the shrub this year, the most ever, but unfortunately they don't stay on long and the blooms end up on the floor in a heap especially if it rains.

Hexies - English Paper Piecing
I've made quite a collection of hexies [293] so now I'm going to start sewing them together. I found a nice box to keep them in.
