On entering the garden at its lower side there is a wide chunamed walk leading in a winding manner up the side of the hill, in the direction of the house. On each side of this walk are arranged the trees and shrubs indigenous to the country, as well as many of the fruits, all of which grow most luxuriantly. Camellia hongkongensis is one of the most common plants here, and walking up the mountain, there are white camellias blooming all around. The flowering period for the Camellia hongkongensis is in October, November, and December. The seeds I gave to Hook were collected in September 1951.
